Satire and illustration can get love and agree? In Italy have a satirical Illustrator well known called Giorgio Forattini, much discussed in the past and sued a myriad of times why is targeting politicians and various characters. The artist that I present to you today is Pawel Kuczynski and his illustrations are focused on satire but in a completely different way and now you will see why.
Pawel Kuczynski is Polish born in Szczecin, class 1976, and graduated from the Fine Arts Academy in Poznan with specialization in graphics. Dedicates all satirical illustration from 2004 with great success because he won several prestigious awards and mentions. Why all this success?
The satire is a genre, in this case art, that focuses primarily on criticism and on teasing. Society and politics and the human beings are at the centre of this criticism because of the thousand contradictions thay carry behind. In some cases religions are victims of satire, we say that in general if you object satire is because something has gone wrong. The topical, without necessarily speak of our country, is carefully scrutinized by artists who capture the deep contradictions and injustices and spiattellano no half measures in their works.
Pawel Kuczynski is no less. What you'll see in his works is a fierce critique of society, but on big issues like the hunger, the poverty, the social injustice, the politics and finally the social communication. Without take aim at a specific politician, State or public figure, But speaking a universal language, unfortunately, makes us all equal.

Very beautiful pictures, suggest you take a look at the famous graffittista Banksy
Thank you Edward for the tip.
Banksy is really an excellent example of satire and street art.
Davvero interessante questo illustratore, non lo conoscevo. Le sue immagini sono incredibilmente forti ed espressive, fanno pensare e riflettere senza cadere nel cattivo gusto, indeed, sono molto eleganti e la tecnica di realizzazione è ottima. Grazie Valentina per avermelo fatto conoscere.
Grazie Marco! :)
