Roberto Lugo, All About the Benjamins Century Vase, 2016, porcelain (Museum of Art, Philadelphia)
Der puerto-ricanische Keramikkünstler Roberto Lugo verbindet traditionelle Porzellankunst mit modernen sozialkritischen Themen. In seinen farbenfrohen Werken thematisiert er Rassismus, Ungleichheit und kulturelle Identität, wobei er Graffiti-Elemente und historische Muster kombiniert. Lugo, der in Philadelphia aufwuchs, nutzt seine Kunst als Werkzeug für gesellschaftlichen Wandel und inspiriert weltweit durch Ausstellungen und Lehrtätigkeiten. Seine Skulpturen und Vasen sind gefragte Sammlerstücke und erreichen fünf- bis sechsstellige Verkaufspreise. Entdecken Sie die Geschichte eines Künstlers, der Schönheit und Rebellion vereint.
Happy birthday to Roberto Lugo, who self-identifies as a ghetto potter, activist, culture-maker, rapper, spoken word poet, and educator. He blends his personal experiences of poverty, racism, and being a potter of color with historical ceramic forms, unapologetically inserting his own cultural perspective into a creative arena historically dominated by white makers. In updating ceramic discourse through representing people of color (activists, rappers, poets, politicians) as well as memorializing victims of police brutality and violence, Lugo’s work testifies to the triumphant and tragic lives contributing to history as it unfolds today. See two life-size works by Lugo on view in "New Grit: Art & Philly Now" through August 22.

Philadelphia pottery artist Roberto Lugo
Roberto Lugo grew up in a North Philadelphia neighborhood better known for poverty and crime than for pottery. Yet the 40-year-old artist's ceramics, featuring the faces of his personal heroes, put a modern spin on classic teapots. Correspondent Serena Altschul talks with Lugo, whose work is on display at some of the country's leading museums and galleries, about how he is shaping his passion to inspire others.
