 Las Aventuras de Olmeco Beuys  es un comic que se remonta a la era precolombina, tomando como protagonista un artista olmeca incomprendido. Autor de cabezas colosales, Olmeco Beuys vive en la eterna pero futil búsqueda de reconocimento, becas y exposiciones mientras que es ignorado por su entorno social de galeristas, curadores, artistas y coleccionistas. Este nuevo libro de Pablo Helguera, conocido por sus sátiras alrededor del mundo del arte contemporáneo, realiza de nuevo un análisis agudo e irónico de sus dinámicas sociales desde el absurdo de una época remota cuyos personajes sin embargo viven nuestros propios dilemas, dramas y conflictos.   'Llorarás, incluso aullarás, de risa'. - Flash Art   'Acido abscórbico en su estado más puro'.  -Felipe Ehrenberg, artista   'Helguera rostiza a las especies del mundo del arte, una a una.' -Artnews Pablo Helguera is a visual artist living in New York whose works and performances have been presented in museums and art spaces internationally. He is the author of the books The Pablo Helguera Manual of Contemporary Art Style, The Boy Inside the Letter, The Witches of Tepoztlán (and Other Unpublished Operas), Artoons, and Theatrum Anatomicum (and Other Performance Lectures) and his most recent work What in the World.
