Colombia
Antonio Caro's *Colombia* is a bold and politically charged work that appropriates the iconic red-and-white Coca-Cola logo, replacing the brand name with the word "Colombia" in screenprint inks on cotton canvas. The piece draws a sharp parallel between the pervasive reach of American corporate capitalism and its influence on Colombian society and identity. Through this simple yet powerful visual substitution, Caro critiques cultural imperialism and the commodification of his homeland.
