Pepemaniak, "All You Eat"

All You Can Eat is Pepemaniak’s first book that tells the story of a generation without veils. Pepemaniak, born Federico Ceruso, has surfed on the language of counterculture, crossing paths with all the pivotal figures of the birth of the movement in his artistic journey. Pepe returned from Miami in 2010 with a very specific idea: to break down the rusty dynamics of the artistic Italian panorama and overcome the self-imposed limits of censorship. So he began to mix painting, tattoo, performance and photography with a clever use of media, thus reaching the masses and imposing his taste and his impudence in a market that was waiting for nothing else. All You Can Eat, an unstoppable bulimia of information that, in 144 color pages, has been able to read and give shape to one of the only contemporary currents capable of crossing different forms of expression and giving life to a real cultural movement.

Federico Ceruso, aka Pepemaniak, was born in Rome on 1991. Pepemaniak’s career begins at a young age, when in 2010 began the production and distribution of stickers depicting a stylized vagina, an intuition that will forever mark his artistic path. In 2012, after an initial period of his career spent in the eternal city, Maniak moved to Miami with a fervent desire to refine and smooth his painting technique. In 2016 Maniak returns to his homeland where he obsessively continues his work and where he never missed an opportunity to incorporate new expressive genres into his artistic practice. At the same time, he is developing projects in the world of fashion, coming into contact with international brands such as Adidas and Guidi. Pepemaniak embodies the generational will to move within a system, in this case the world of art, and shape it from within, out of necessity, provocation, play and yes, for its and our entertainment!
