Ché by Rómulo Santa Rita is a compelling work of Black Art, created in mixed media on cardboard. Reinterpreting the iconic figure of Che Guevara, the painting becomes a meditation on politics, identity, and resistance, transforming revolutionary imagery into a contemporary cultural statement.

Santa Rita’s layered materials and textured approach amplify the themes of struggle and resilience, situating Ché within the continuum of Black Art as both homage and critique. The raw surface of cardboard underscores impermanence, reinforcing the urgency of liberation narratives.

As part of Afrikanizm Art’s curated collection, Ché is a one-of-a-kind collector’s piece that bridges history and aesthetics. A painting that reframes revolutionary symbolism through the lens of Black Art, affirming its power to preserve memory and inspire transformation.

ABOUT THE ARTIST

Rómulo Santa Rita

As an autodidact, he moved to Luanda in 2011, where he found the inspiration that helped define his urban interventions as visual expressions of life and thought. These are then materialized through compositions based on alternative materials such as cardboard, books with stains of acrylic paint and gouache, and pieces of magazines and papers, which he carefully selects in accordance with the specific political, social, and cultural topics addressed.
