Marcellus Gallardo already has his sculpture at the door of the Museum of Rivermeters from the stadium Monumental and in the heart of the Núñez neighborhood, a right and deserved tribute to one of the greatest symbols in the history of the “millionaire” club.
Starting this Saturday 27 and after the great event organized by the institution, the hundreds and thousands of fans, families and children who come to that area of the city of Buenos Aires will have the opportunity to take a selfie or pose next to the Colossus “Muñeco” 7 meters high and weighing 6.3 tons standing next to the river field.
Naturally, one very particular detail stands out in the sculptor’s creation mercedes salvallwho was commissioned to do the work at the request of Charles Trillo, the ideologue of the movement. While respecting Gallardo’s features with virtuous rigour, DT’s groin area is disproportionately large compared to the rest of his body.
Once the statue was discovered, this situation did not go unnoticed by anyone in Núñez let alone on social mediawhere memes, jokes and comments circulated, also obscuring the emotional speech that the Doll made on stage or the presence of many figures and idols from the River world.
The question was to know the nature of that particular design in the humanity of the “copper” Gallardo, whether it was accidental or intentional. And it was precisely the sculptor who was in charge of revealing the matter.
“Football is like this, this is the language of football. We will say it like this, so that the fans have a little more fun”, replied the artist with a laugh, to underline what in the always male-dominated code of the l football environment would determine some emotional factor in the personality of the former DT.
