Background and additional listing information

1999 Rare Poster from La Mercè Barcelona Festival by Nazario Luque.

Nazarioo Luque, his homosexual eroticism and his daring exploration of the taboos then in vogue equated him to Pedro Almodóvar. Often crude and sordid, expressive and baroque, his comic strips take advantage of the differences between the care taken in drawing and grotesque details (overdimensioned sexes, gestures). A great subversive potential can be found: this is how Anarcoma 2 (published in Belgium under the title Cultures) imagines a military order that kidnaps and tortures homosexuals, transvestites and transsexuals to put them in the hands of the police. In this way, adjectives such as agitator, transgressor, polemic or provocateur are quite common when referring to his work.
