nerosunero reviewed by Mocoloco (Montreal Sept. 2013)

Girls and Landscape (On the road) by nerosunero (Mario Sughi)
by sabine7 / September 16, 2013

Fleeting glimpses of a summer just past is what Mario Sughi's latest body of work reveals to us.
Late walks on the beach speak of a sun no longer at its peak; long sleeves and darker colours creep in to the landscape; this could be the last chance to spend some time at an outdoor cafe.
The shadow of a dog on the beach is an especially nice touch.
The passage of time is tidily evoked by Sughi's palette, but at the same time something stronger is in the air: a sense of foreboding or danger is hinted at (sometimes broadly) in some of the pieces.
MoCo Loco (Montreal, Ca, 16 IX 2013)

nerosunero reviewed by Mutantspace

Mario Sughi aka nerosunero’s illustrations take on the Irish middle class, the wealthy pinko liberals who I despise. He upsets, disrupts, exposes their genteel ways for what they are, empty gestures towards open thinking.

Sughi has a unique angle on the comings and goings of the Irish middle class as he’s been living and working in Dublin for over 25 years after a career working as a cartoonist in Italy during a period noted for its state corruption, mafia collusion and political agitation. Ireland is not much different, its protagonists just quieter, more conniving, better at spinning a story.

And these illustrations are full of stories. Look closely and you’ll find yourself in a world of cold, glacial characters going to and from galleries, restaurants, golf courses, modernist seaside houses in their sunglasses, short skirts and suits. It’s a country, a place driven by social affectations and cultural ignorance .

Sughi’s great skill is the subtle way he undermines the class structure in our so called classless republic, his satirical pictures dressed up in a Hocknesque disguise; minimalist geometric forms in candy coloured bliss, breezy scenes of the high life in a world oblivious to social justice.

You can see Mario Sughi’s work until 17th August 2013 @ RHA 183rd Annual Exhibition, 15 Ely Place, Dublin

Not To Violence Against Women


Not To Violence Against Women, originally uploaded by nerosunero.


nerosunero with Cartoonists against Violence Against Women
PLEASE JUST EMPATHY!
Violence against woman and insulting” is a deficiency of many societies nowadays.
It doesn’t matter if it is developing or underdeveloped country; women are always alone, feeble and unhappy. People have to comprehend that man and woman should have equal freedom in social life. Unfortunately, we witness the increasing of the violence towards woman worldwide in the near future. As Caricaturists, we considered to protest this violence through “emphaty”. We have already investigated and condemned this issue via our drawings. for years. But this time, we decided to attract attention with a different approach. Would you like to support battered women which we see on television or the internet with “Emphaty Photo” as if we got the beating? That is to say, we are looking for a “battered man” photo from you! Our aim is to attract attention to this matter and look for a solution internationally. We call all the male caricaturists to supply this campaign!

Don Quichotte

SADECE EMPATİ LÜTFEN!
"Kadına şiddet ve aşağılama" günümüzde hemen her toplumun kanayan yarası. Gelişmiş veya gelişmemiş toplum olması bir şeyi değiştirmiyor.Kadın hep yalnız... Kadın hep güçsüz... Kadın hep mutsuz...Erkek, sosyal ve toplumsal yaşamda kendisine ne kadar hak tanınmışsa aynı eşitlikte kadına da tanınması gerektiğinin bilincinde olmalı artık!Son dönemlerde ne yazık ki hemen her ülkede kadına şiddetin arttığını görmekteyiz. Karikatür sanatçıları olarak, bu şiddeti "empati" yaparak protesto etmeyi düşündük.Bu konuyu yıllardır irdeliyoruz ve çizgilerimizle kınıyoruz zaten. Ancak bu kez farklı bir yaklaşımla bu konuya dikkat çekmeyi düşündük. Medyada sürekli gördügümüz şiddet görmüş, dayak yemiş kadınlara o dayağı bizler yemiş gibi "empati fotoğraf"la destek vermeye ne dersiniz?
Yani, sizlerden "şiddet görmüş bir erkek" fotoğrafı bekliyoruz.
Amacımız bu konuya uluslararası platformda dikkat çekmek ve çözüm aramak.Tüm erkek çizerleri bu kampanyaya destek vermeye çağırıyoruz!..

이탈리아 일러스트레이터 마리오 수기 Mario Sughi.
현재 더블린에서 생활하고 있으며 "nerosunero" 라는 이름으로도 활동하고 있다.

그의 주제는 낯익고 평범하고 조용하고 나른한 일상에서
그로테스크한 공허함을 포착하는 것이다.
다소 밋밋할 수 있을 주제지만, 어떤 사건이 막 일어나기 직전에 형성되는
드라마틱한 모멘트가 긴장을 유발함으로써 극복하고 있다.
