Arte, ciudad y creatividad. Los paisajes publicitarios de Nicolás Gless.

El presente artículo investiga la influencia del fenómeno publicitario como elemento configurador de la esencia urbana en la obra del dibujante y pintor Nicolás Gless. Una obra en la que la publicidad y el diseño gráfico sobrepasan el papel de ornamento para convertirse en rasgo hiperbólico de las sociedades posmodernas. Unos referentes decisivos que, unidos a un profundo conocimiento de los movimientos artísticos del siglo XX y un lenguaje visual cercano al comic, cristalizan en una serie de paisajes urbanos de estilo muy reconocible denominados “paisajes electrográficos”. Un caso paradigmático de las influencias recíprocas entre arte y publicidad vigentes desde mediados del siglo XIX.
