Artist of the month
Eduardo Relero creates giant 3D artworks
Each month, we introduce the artist whose work is featured on the cover and at the beginning of the focus section of our monthly edition.
Argentinian artist Eduardo Relero creates giant 3D artworks designed to encourage the public to interact with them. He lives in Madrid, but his art has travelled across locations around the world – including Rome, Tokyo, New York and Buenos Aires. Relero is well-known for his large-scale works on streets, in public spaces and on walls. An optical illusion creates a striking 3D effect.
Some of Relero’s 3D paintings have been used for campaigns by civil-society organisations. Our cover image, a 5-by-10-metre street art piece, was displayed by Amnesty International at the 2019 Hannover Messe, the world’s largest industrial trade fair. The 3D artwork at the start of our focus section addresses the issue of electronic waste and was displayed at the 2018 Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
