El Cartel


El Cártel You’ve stomached the papers; you’ve endured CNN, now see the news from the ground. El Cártel is the siren of the city, waging a war of guerrilla news on the streets of Madrid. Chronicling an age where information is industry, this activism art is the visual intifada. A covert street-poster operation calculated to challenge and motivate Spain’s political consciousness.

The political voice of El Cártel four protagonists is broadcasted with an unparalleled fusion of sophistication, irony and sensitivity. This is a collection of visual manifestoes. With El Cartel’s innovative blend of comic art, news and graffiti awesome word-plays and ironic storyboards challenge us with contemporary issues like the recent wars, the impasse of democracy and the endless permutations of consumerism and mass control in contemporary culture.

Each Poster is headed with an iconographic equation that enigmatically challenges the viewer to engage his/her own political views.
