Pedro Uribe Echeverria's winning entry
The winner of the December Saatchi Online Studio competition is Pedro Uribe Echeverria from Paris. Saatchi Online correspondent, Ana Finel Honigman, comments: "Following the rules of old-fashion seduction, Pedro Uribe Echeverria leaves much to the imagination. Yet his velvety figures still appear like characters from classic film stills. Two women he draws could pass as Simone Signoret and Véra Clouzot from 'Les Diabolique'. And a younger woman with an older man could be Jeanne Moreau and her perverse employer in Buñuel's 'Diary of a Chambermaid.' With his cutting edge tools and loose lines, Uribe Echeverria evokes these iconic images of high intrigue, romantic tension and complex emotion." The Saatchi Gallery will donate £500 in the artist's name to a hospital of his choice.
ALIX RULE TO JUDGE JANUARY'S SAATCHI ONLINE STUDIO COMPETITION
The critic and Saatchi Online magazine contributor Alix Rule will judge the January Saatchi Online Studio competition.
