From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lucio Salvatore (born May 3, 1975) is an Italian-born multidisciplinary Brazilian artist who works with sculpture, photography, text, painting, performance and appropriation of processes. Salvatore lives and works in Rio de Janeiro and in Sant’Elia Fiumerapido, Italy. Salvatore’s artworks are situations created with heterogeneous elements, processes and people that work together in experimental form. His work is seen as a critique of both centralized and decentralized powers and its abuses, social control and consumerism in its broadest declination, especially cultural.[1]

Salvatore is known for his body of work 'Some Other Race', a unique series of conceptual artworks created with human blood that opens new perspectives on the way the nature of the work of art can be thought. Through parodies of scientific methods of classifications and categorizations, Salvatore looks at the common elements that precede rigid definitions of people's identities, the indiscernible nature of the fluid from where any difference comes from, as the artist declares in his interview with Brazilian journalist Jo Soares in 2010.[2]
