This is a selection of images created with the crude style used to illustrate weekly magazines. Those images are commonly called "concepts"; they are hired to image stock banks to illustrate the ideas and articles published in those magazines. The concepts also reveal a frivolous classification of the world based on a commercial vision of the interests of the people as mere consumers: Lifestyles, bussines, animals, sensitive issues...
My intention while making my own concepts was to visualize my particular vision of reality in a familiar style to everyone. Besides, I tried to warn about the power of mass media images to build realitiy.
What you see here is part of "Longobardo Image Bank", my own bank of images; therefore my opinions, or my dump ideas, about the world; they were exhibited January in Casa encendida, an spanish art center.
