Kurt Cobain / Nirvana

The name is a fusion of the English word "cartoon" and the Spanish word "cartonero". This word describes an informal way of employment which arose after the social and economic crisis of 2001 in Argentina. It involves collecting cardboards from the garbage in order to sell them to recycling plants. The name, as most of Cartoonneros art, traduces and expresses his social and political concerns.

The main focuses of his work are social and political issues and music. He has made stencil for local rock bands and international artists as Morphine, Robert Wyatt, Thurston Moore, Krist Novoselic from Nirvana (who uses a Cartoonneros stencils as his Twitter profile photo), Tony Allen (drummer of Fela Kuti) and Cat Power.
