Rico Sab est un artiste peintre français né en 1971 dont l'œuvre réunit le pop art et street art.
En un regard, on remarque face aux peintures de Rico Sab, c'est la quantité d'éléments qui les composent. Aucun détail n'est laissé au hasard, aucun espace n'est laissé à l'abandon. Chaque parcelle de ses tableaux sont occupées et ont une raison précise de l'être.
Un paysage pop surpeuplé où se côtoient nombre de références. Rico Sab s'imprègne des figures de la culture populaire depuis les années 1950, les assimile et leur donne une seconde vie en les jetant sur sa toile. Ensemble, ces personnages ancrés dans l'imaginaire collectif, forment de nouveau récit.
Bande-dessinées, séries télévisées, films, cartoons, comics ou mangas entrent en interaction et ce n'est pas sans encombre. Daisy va faire de l'œil au Capitaine America pendant que Peter Pan quitte le pays imaginaire au profit de celui de Candy. L'ensemble est saupoudré de lettres, d'onomatopées propres à la bande dessinée et aux cartoons.
Un décor cosmopolite, mais qui ne se résume pas à un magma de références accolées les unes aux autres. Rico Sab met en parallèle cette culture populaire avec l'Histoire de l'art. Au détour d'un tableau, Dora Maar peinte par Picasso va surgir en écho à Mickey. Le fond répond à la forme, en plus d'évoquer les classiques de la peinture, Rico Sab les exploite dans sa technique. L'importance du dessin prédomine dans ses patchworks. On discerne une armature épaisse, marquée d'un trait noir, qui souligne le contour. Ce procédé est caractéristique de la deuxième partie du XXème siècle, en particulier dans la publicité ou la bande dessinée.
Derrière ces couleurs pétantes et ces héros imaginaires, Rico Sab nous dresse une critique déguisée de notre société actuelle et globalisée. Il y a deux niveaux de lectures, deux interprétations possibles dans ses visuels. Il utilise des représentations naïves pour mieux éveiller notre conscience, notre morale, créant ainsi le décalage. Une œuvre qui ne vieillit pas, a bien y regarder, on reconnaîtra des thèmes toujours d'actualité.
