His striking, vivid mixed media artwork borrows motifs and messages from the language of wealth, power, fame, excess, taste, and access to cast a narrative about modern society. Known to many as The King of Pop Art, De La Nuez is an innate iconoclast, elevating themes from commerce, pop culture, advertising, and branding to provide commentary on our culture — showing us that the entire world is for sale — in a manner that is both ironic and aspirational.

• One-of-a-kind mixed media art on paper measuring 52 inches high by 42 inches and 2.25 inches deep
• Created with mixed media, acrylic, and oil pastel
• Presented in a modern white frame; size and price include the frame
• Signed by the artist on the front
• Certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included
• Free local Los Angeles area delivery
• Affordable U.S. and international shipping available

Included in the “Who’s Who List of the Most Collected Artists of Our Time '', De La Nuez was born in Cuba and moved as a child to California, where he was initially introduced to many of the iconic images that he uses in his art to this day. His ability to experience these important cultural touchpoints at such a young age with a purely fresh perspective allows him a distinctive point of view—one that is both critical and embracing, sardonic and sentimental—that lends his work an air of accessibility and curiosity and has led to his significant popularity.
