Dick El Demasiado
Dick El Demasiado, aka Dick Verdult, is a visual artist, musician, author and filmmaker. Throught his career he has been marked as a pioneer. Starting with interactive cinema in de 70’s, with punk television in the 80’s, with group-performances and internet in the 90’s, and with cumbia and the distortion of popular culture in this present milenium.
The artists language distorts clichés, twists perspectives, and flows continuously with media-driven manipulations. The cinematic concepts he creates evoke a sense of playfulness or discomfort, adaptable to the most suitable medium without any preference for traditional craftsmanship.
Als Colombiaanse journalisten hem al sinds 2003 de Neil Armstrong van de Maanzieke Cumbias noemen, dan is dat omdat zwaartekracht in zijn vervormde dansmuziek niet bestaat.
Van Patagonië tot de Poolzee, overal waar een goede geluisinstallatie is, gaat hij los.
5 cd’s, twee vinyls, en tóch amper op spotify omdat hij daar geen zin in heeft.
