Manuel Franquelo Giner denounces from different disciplines the accelerated pace of industrial manufacturing, as well as food waste and the present monumental production of animals. Sustainability in all aspects is undoubtedly the leitmotiv in his production. In "Baby calf" Franquelo reflects on the oppression of animals by depicting a stuffed calf whose throat is slit in the slaughterhouse and from whose belly its entrails hang. The colourful viscera add a certain naïve touch to the crudeness of the image. Manuel Franquelo-Giner lives and works in Madrid. He studied?
