About the Item

These are the detectives of the Belgian comic book Tintin created by Herge. FER SUCRE is a Venezuelan-born artist now in Wynwood Miami, Florida. He studied graphic design and painting at the Neumann Institute of Design and the Federico Brandt Institute in Caracas and later at the University of Miami School of Fine Arts where he owned his technique for mixing media such as oil, acrylic, plastic and collage. Working within the “pop” genre for the last several years, Sucre has gained attention and recognition for his creative blending of this very American tradition with his distinctive Latin American sensibilities, earning him awards like the Absolute Vodka in Venezuela, 1st Place at The 8th Conference of First Wives of The Americas in Chile. Fer was chosen to paint Corporate Executives in Caracas, Venezuela, invited to participate in Art Miami and FIA, and has been an active member of the South Florida artistic scene. As an artist living and working in Miami, he finds the environment here creatively invigorating. Sources of inspiration in his particular mode of expression, “pop” painting, seem to exude from every corner of this amazing city. He has been living in and out of Miami over the last 30 years like his peers Romero Britto and Marisol Escobar. His neo pop style combines vibrant colors with an upbeat, humorous point of view for a result that is fresh, fun and full of life. His work has been exhibited in the U.S., Europe and throughout Latin America and is included in private and public collections worldwide. Sucre developed an unusual fascination with comics books, cartoons and superheroes. Growing up in the excessive social scene that was Caracas of the 70’s and early 80’s, Sucre soon translated his taste for comics into a new style of caricature filled with satire, humor and playful parody. He has become known for his wild characters, neurotic bar scenes and colorful interpretations of the rich and famous. Following the lead of many of his most important contemporary pop artists, Sucre has been selected and commissioned to apply his artistic vision to several major product campaigns including Absolut Vodka. Influenced by the works of pop pioneers like Andy Warhol, Keith Haring and Roy Lichtenstein, he is always reinterpreting, reinventing and expanding on the stylistic horizons of “pop” to find new ways to invite his audience to laugh, to join the party and be entertained. It’s fun, bright, colorful and full of a unique kind of energy.
