Painter and sculptor recognized as one of the leading contemporary artists of his generation. Romero Britto is characterized by the unusual creation of a predominantly colorful expressive language, through which he creates compositions and themes of pop influence, focused on making visible the different racial and socioeconomic hallmarks. His paintings of great vivacity and aesthetics, have served him to work with recognized brands such as Apple, Pepsi, Absolut Vodka or Disney World, in the realization of artistic designs. In fact, in 1898, Absolut Vodka commissioned the Brazilian artist to create an artistic design with the name of the renowned brand. This event enrolled Britto in the list of notable artists along with A. Warhol, Ed Ruscha or K. Haring, also recognized for the famous vodka campaign. In addition, some celebrities such as Shakira, Bono, Bill Clinton or Julio Iglesias, have chosen him to be the creator of their portraits reinterpreted by the neo-pop artist. Britto's work is influenced by Pop Art, graffiti and elements of stereotypical cubism, a combination that has served him as a letter of introduction to the artistic world. Today, Romero Britto is represented in galleries and museums on five continents, the Carrousel du Louvre, Opera Gallery NY, Museo Reina Sofia, The British Museum, The Saatchi Gallery, Sichuan Lu Xun Museum of Fine Arts.
