David LaChapelle - The Superpower

David LaChapelle's work, The Superpower is a pigment print on Dibond made in a limited edition of 10 copies and 3 artist's proofs.

The photograph, taken at Cape Canaveral, features a bodybuilder surrounded by numerous children. The man, posing, stands above a pedestal depicting the American flag, while the children, in swimsuits that reference the colors of the flag, imitate him in poses while looking mostly toward the frame. 

Looming in the background behind them is NASA's Kennedy Space Central, world-famous for initiating the Apollo Mission, the space program that led to the landing of the first men on the moon in 1969. 

In this work, LaChapelle confronts us with the contradictions of American society, which, while it has accomplished great deeds remembered by humanity by counting itself as a world superpower, also sets toxic and unparalleled examples for new generations.

Inserting himself masterfully between the dreamlike and hyperrealist dimensions, LaChapelle makes a subtle social critique. The scene comes across as surreal to the viewer, dominated by bright and vivid hues, emphasizing the critical trend of modern society in which what matters is the showiness of gestures and what is in fashion at the moment.

The work The Superpower was made in 1993, and measures 46x59 cm.
