Antropoetico - Maestro contemporaneo - Artisti emergenti

Biography

Antropoetico began as a voice. In 2009 something broke — or perhaps opened — and from that crack everything started pouring out: poetry, novels, essays, words written with the urgency of someone who cannot do otherwise. But words alone were never enough to hold what he needed to say.

Then came painting. Not as a deliberate choice, but as a necessity. The brush became a natural extension of the same voice that writes, and the canvas a boundless space where every emotion finds its own shape. Working in acrylic on canvas, he refuses to be confined to any single style or movement: portraits, abstraction, surrealism, figures, inner and outer landscapes alternate across a body of work exceeding 280 pieces, each unmistakable for the singular mark of his brushstroke.

The critic Antonio Castellana wrote of his work: «We are in the presence of an artist of high creative level and professional skill». In 2017 he took part in the International Art Prize Essenze d'Arte at the Mùses of Palazzo Taffini D'Acceglio in Savigliano, and in the Arte Milano Prize — passing the selection jury and receiving a certificate signed by Vittorio Sgarbi, with the award ceremony held at the Teatro Dal Verme. In 2018 his paintings were exhibited at the Albatros Gallery in Parma and in collective shows across Milan.

As a writer, he has published the novel Il bacio della vita — a story of redemption, impossible love and the will to live — and the poetry collection Poesie di Merda, in which formal provocation becomes a vehicle for uncomfortable truths about the human condition.

Participation at the International Artistic Prize "Essences of Art 2017" at the Mùses - European Academy of Essences, located in the prestigious seat of Palazzo Taffini D'Acceglio in via Sant'Andrea in Savigliano (CN).

Opinions on the works by Tutor, Masters and Critics of Art:

Opera: Butterfly in the night

Marco Van Duck 15 / mar / 2017 18:26:06

It is only apparently simple, it has all the requirements of a work of art. The artist has made the idea of the dream butterfly wonderfully beautiful. By creating the chiaroscuro with the choice of colors in the wings (which only the sanny masters do) is blending the contours with the white with great taste creating a healthy indeterminacy that Well improves the coherence of the image with the title.

Opera: The spice merchant

Antonio Castellana 01 / apr / 2017 14:14:16

Of greater importance is the fact that domain and dexterity in the use of design, color and space is not merely an academic exercise, but in this case expresses the world and the imagination of anthropoetics who know how to make use of a mere form Expressive character that characterizes the work "The Spice Shopper". There is no doubt that we are faced with the work of a high-level creative artist and professional dexterity.
