MASHUP SUPERSTUDIO 2010
21 Jul
During the month of May and June 2010 I was back from Barcelona to Milan to present a big personal exhibition called Mash Up. It tooks me a whole year to prepare all the pieces of the show which were almost 50 new artworks divided between big sized canvases, medium size artworks on paper, and a huge sculpture and a enormous spraypainted Pvc on the outside.
The exhibition name was clear the show was a Mash-up of images from contemporary culture following this major quote: “Art, don’t lock yourself up inside your rooms, keep in touch with the street kids.”
The Location SuperstudioPiú, Via Tortona 27, Milan (www.superstudiogroup.com) was an huge industrial space that in which take place every year very important meetings in the fields of Art, Fashion and Design such the Milan Furniture Fair, The “White Milano” Fashion Fair and “Contemporary” Art Fair.
So I was amazed to have such a big space for me. Thanks to the big effort of my italian friends and producers at Art Kitchen we builted up a very professional and ambitious exhibition divided in three main sections.
Nearly 1000 people came to the opening despite the bad weather!!! Here some pics of the show…
