UN SABADO MAS

The onset, as is often the case with the predestined, was not the best. The most conservative, hesited to be new, despised him, twisting his nose at his "weirdness." << This guy doesn't strike, he insists on avoid......but doesn't hit. What is it?>> Nothing but the ultimate expression of the defensive technique in the ring. Arms dangling on the hips or, even worse, behind the back, shoulders in forward, head bowed and cashed. The music began when the opponents' missed jabs and hooks produced caresses of wind on his face. Fists and the opponent was finished. This was NICOLINO LOCCHE, "El Intocable", the idol of crazy nights at the Lunapark in Buenos Aires; he would fall asleep and wake up without anxiety, five minutes before he got into the ring. The time of a small "siesta" in the company of the inevitable " cigarillo traicionero". Against tobacco he has always lost, against his
opponents almost never.
The work was made on a wooden panel, with concrete, acrylics, fabrics and objects of various types. . The title "Un sabado mas" is taken from the song of the same name by Chico Novarro, Argentine singer of the sixties, who with his music animated the nights of Buenos Aires.
