Rubik Country Life (151/431)
Invader
- 100 x 100 cm
- Gelimiteerde editie
The Rubik Country Life is based on the revolutionary cover art for the Roxy Music’s album ‘Country Life’ (1974). While the album was well received, the cover art was considered controversial for its semi-nude models captured in suggestive poses.
Invader appropriated this problematic image and reworked it through his subversive method. In this print, the models’ bodies and poses are immediately recognisable, yet their eroticism is made less conspicuous through the process of abstraction. The models’ alluring facial expressions are concealed, with their bodies coalescing through glossy squares of white and orange. Like in many of Invader’s more complex creations, the full picture can only be gleaned at a distance, or through the additional barrier of a smartphone camera.

Invader
De Franse popcultuur kunstenaar Invader infiltreerde de kunstscène in de jaren negentig. Hoewel het enige tijd nodig had voordat hij erkenning kreeg voor zijn eerste werk zijn zijn creaties nu te zien op gebouwen in meer dan 30 landen en 60 steden. Het moderne kunstbeeld van Invader is van pixellated karakters geïnspireerd op de videospelletjes van de jaren '70 en '80 zoals Invaders en Pac-Man.
