Hello, classmates and teacher!
Today, I chose
to write about a Chilean artist. Maybe, someone in this course know him. His
artist name is "Necro" and his real name is Michael Benítez. He's a
underground sculptor and painter.
I knew him
thank's TV: When I was 13 years old, in a Vía X's segment, he showed his
works. Necro's a great studious about anatomy, but in the "strange
way": His creations are made with bones, yes, real bones (actually,
he sculpt man-made skulls in many cases, but he pick up animal
bones for parts of his works). He studied Art pedagogy in UMCE (surprise!) and
today he was 34 years old.
In
the beginning of his career, he made some works, like lamps and chairs,
but now, he has a great curriculum: Necro made the "Throne of
bones", used in many metal concerts; the "Necrobar", decorated
with skulls in the superior part and provided with alcohol for all the
preferences; and the "Necrobus", used in the last Black Sabbath's concert in our country.
The people could think that meet Necro is an impossible dream, but he's near: you can find him and talk with him in Facebook or see him in Biobio fair, when he sells "little" pieces of art (compared to the monsters named previously).
I know him, but I never ask him two thing: Why do you like bones?, how do you inspired everyday?
Wow I never heard about him! That lot of bones scare me a little bit xD
