201 - “SLASKY,” (Artena, Rome, 1972).

“SLASKY,” (Artena, Rome, 1972). “American Gothic.” Digital art. Giclée on Hahnemühle Photo Rag. Edition 1/3, with certificate of authenticity. Measurements: 46 x 70 cm. Slasky is an established Italian artist whose works have been featured in solo and group exhibitions internationally. Fascinated by Caravaggio’s Baroque painting, Slasky creates classical works of art using digital art techniques. With his neo-urban classical style, he blends tradition and modernism, placing the protagonists of the original works of art into contemporary social and artistic settings. By placing the protagonists of the original works in contemporary social and artistic settings, he has created a series of pieces that convey new messages and require a degree of engagement from the viewer to be fully understood. The works evoke an immediate sense of familiarity, yet are presented with an injection—sometimes an explosion—of color and life that imbues them with richness and modernity. In his canvases, details take center stage, as he uses color contrast techniques, textured backgrounds, and screen prints to render the same subject in diverse ways, setting it apart from its traditional settings.
