AFTER PICASSO EXHIBITION
We are so proud to have Eugenio Recuenco be part of this important exhibition of Picasso in USA.
– AFTER PICASSO –
80 Contemporary Artists
WEXNER CENTER FOR THE ARTS
September 19 − December 27, 2015 in Columbus, Ohio
Explore Pablo Picasso’s potent legacy and persistent impact on several generations of artists in this vibrant exhibition occupying all our galleries this fall. After Picasso: 80 Contemporary Artists features nearly 150 works in a variety of mediums. Among those included are such Picasso peers as Brassaï, Ernst Ludwig Kirchner, Henri-Cartier Bresson, and Dora Maar. Plus you’ll find contemporary masters like Jasper Johns, Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, Cindy Sherman, William Wegman, Louise Lawler, Sigmar Polke, Amy Sillman, and Fred Wilson.
After Picasso offers the perfect bookend to Transfigurations: Modern Masters from the Wexner Family Collection, which featured 19 works by Picasso and inaugurated our 25th Anniversary Season last September. Originally titled Picasso in Contemporary Art, the exhibition was first presented at the Deichtorhallen Hamburg on the occasion of its own 25th anniversary and curated by the institution’s general director, Dirk Luckow.
NICCOLO BY MARCO POLO
Niccolo by Marco Polo is a collection of urban chic hotels under the umbrella of Hong Kong’s Marco Polo Hotel Group.
Fast Management was commissioned by branding agency Yang Rutherford to have our artists Eugenio Recuenco and Eric Dover interpret their tag of “New Encounters – Timeless Pleasures” which they had developed for the launch.
The film and stills campaign, written and directed by Fast Management’s Eugenio Recuenco and Eric Dover and with production and casting by Fast Management was shot in Los Angeles last October.
We are delighted to share the tv commercial film that accompanies the print and social media push in conjunction with the group’s opening of their first property in Chengdu.
Eugenio and Eric’s characteristic cinematic signature is palpable throughout every one of the frames that lead us to the open ended and at times mysterious finale.
THE SECOND DEFEAT – A FILM BY EUGENIO RECUENCO
The long awaited moment has arrived and we can share with you the trailer to The Second Defeat a film by Eugenio Recuenco.
At the end of 2014, Eugenio Recuenco and Eric Dover started a crowdfunding towards the production costs of making their movie The Second Defeat based on the book, Los Girasoles Ciegos (The Blind Sunflowers) by Spanish writer Alberto Méndez.
This crowdfunding was aimed at equipping the professionals who would worked on this project with the necessary tools to ensure that their creativity and eagerness was not betrayed by a tight budget, thus allowing them the freedom to do the true justice this project truly deserved.
This short film has a special feature. When SOGECINE and Jose Luis Cuerda selflessly assigned the rights of Alberto Méndez’s book, their sole condition was that the project had a non-profit nature. Therefore it was decided that , if the crowdfunding target budget of €205,000 was exceeded the surplus amount will be allocated to DYES, an NGO that works in countries like Sierra Leone, Chad and the Ivory Coast promoting education and sport as elements of peace and development, and helping to rehabilitate child soldiers.
The Second Defeat, is a breathtaking story dealing with a young poet who escaped from the victors of a terrible war to the mountains together with his pregnant wife. In this lonely and cold scenario, the young woman gives birth to a child and dies right after. Thanks to a private diary, where the man puts his fear into words, we can picture the background of the futile fight of the father to save his son’s life.
Filming started in January of 2015.

NICCOLO BY MARCO POLO

Niccolo by Marco Polo is a collection of urban chic hotels with the most desirable highly prized addresses. The group of luxury hotels takes its name from the 13th Century explorer and trader Niccolo Polo (father of Marco) whose epic 20 years adventure opened China to the World.
