Federico Luger. Bananas: SERIES

Current viewing_room
2003-2022
  • Bananas, FEDERICO LUGER

    Bananas

    FEDERICO LUGER

    In this series of works Federico Luger touches on two important social debates that are on the table in Europe at this moment, one is the status of the immigration, in this case focus in Swizerland, the bananas of Federico is a clear intimation of exotic fruit from another land. The paintings make a clear reference to the Swiss Alps, especially the Engadina, where the artist passed important moments of his life with his daughter and son. For Federico Luger, bananas are a metaphor and an answer to how cultural institutions and the media have the abuse of the immigrant figure, the excess of the media as it can focus more on the problem than on the solution. “The magical bananas” of Federico tried to represent a swift of this point of view. The banana also has antidepressive components... as Potassium and mood-changing substances... It’s just to say: eat a banana and go ahead with your life.
