Marcel Dzama (Winnipeg, Manitoba. Canada, 1974)

Rebellion lay in her way

Marcel Dzama was born in Canada in 1974 where he lives and works. Marcel Dzama with a unique personal universe, full of cultural references that go from the Picabia to the comic. His personal iconography, perfectly recognizable, features recurrent characters depicting scenes full of humor, irony and absurd. The piece Rebellion lay her way perfectly suits the CA2M Collection, especially due to its drawings, presentation, and narrative together with a simple technique and, at the same time, fresh.
