As one of the world's most collected, significant pop artists today, Nelson De La Nuez is a born iconoclast. Using his unique juxtaposition of pop culture and surrealism, blended with America’s rich culture and history,  De La Nuez has created works of art that are considered timeless. He began in the early 1980's and became recognized for his original, iconic pop culture pieces that included Monopoly, board games, pin ups, Chanel, nostalgia and pop references to living the good life. He took pop art far beyond where its roots began..and made it all his own.  Listed on the “Who’s Who List of the Most Collected Artists of Our Time,” his works are original, bold and outspoken.  

 

The artist is known for his distinctive, trademarked style he created called “Art on the Edge,” which is creating art on all sides of the canvas and wood.  De La Nuez’s artwork is hanging in some of the most prominent, private collections of movie stars, directors, producers, comedians, corporations and fine art connoisseurs, as well as purchased for auctions by Sotheby's.  His work sells out consistently at such prestigious shows as Art Basel Miami, Art Hamptons, Art Southampton, Art Aspen, and worldwide at galleries located in locations such as Aspen, Palm Beach, Miami, Beverly Hills, Germany, Toronto.  His artwork hangs in the permanent, private collection at the prestigious VIP Delta One lounge and Delta SkyClub at LAX and JFK NY airports. He works closely with very specific charities close to his heart to help raise significant amounts of money.
