Drawn in the style of cartoons in The New Yorker, Pablo Helguera's Artoons exist in a category of their own -which has earned him the title of the art world's anthropologist. While providing an insider's perspective on the workings and contradictions of the contemporary art scene, Helguera's Artoons are satirical, critical, sometimes existential, and always entertaining. Inimitable: the truth and the beauty, the delusions, the vanity and the reality of the art world. The Art Newspaper, London To be an art world insider, you need to know of Pablo Helguera and understand his well-observed jokes.

Fueled by attitude and based on an intimate knowledge of the subjects his cartoons are witty, sharp and above all highly subversive.
