Commercially, he has done work for Absolut vodka, among many others.
The colors are true blues and bright yellows, pretty pastel pinks and greens; the images are generally not quite as cheerful. Marconi masterfully contrasts color themes and content to produce these intriguing images.

Great composition, and “schizophrenic” is the perfect term for this. Very cool, the thinking man (skeleton) reflection in the compact.

I like it. Makes me think of what Cobain would have been as an painter and not a musician.

I found this portrait of Elvis to be at once both compelling and disturbing

Very apt comment.
It's an image that instantly brings the painful threads of Elvis right up front; a simple American boy with enormous and rare talent eager to please his elders; eager to guilelessly serve his bemused and cynical country in the US army, ripped off endlessly by an exploitative manager; eager for recognition as a"drug fighter"while addicted to drugs; isolated in an impenetrable and inescapable soul-killing bubble of kitsch, and finally found alone dead from overdoses of drugs and cholesterol laden foods.
Disturbing is right.
I'll forward this one along to a wine maker I know who started the Church of Elvis.
Worshiping humans isn't my thing, but if one wanted to deify a tragi-comic American figure as the centerpiece of a comfortable home-grown religion, I'm sure Elvis would fit the bill.
We've already got the iconography and the hymnology. - 2 years ago
