Cesare Fullone
Cesare Fullone lives in Milan, where he earned a degree in painting at the Academy of Fine Arts of Brera. He believes that art is a restless language, always in tension, a poetic and ethic way to see and to interpret reality. "Stati di pericolo” (“States of Danger"): chains and barbed wire, metal powders, punches and nails, but also, camouflage paintings, x-rays and "Acids". He chooses powerful icons, he explores bodies as landscapes, worlds and modified objects. Works that simultaneously attract and disturb: hypnotic images from which you can’t turn away from. In 2009 Fullone made an installation called “Dal Creato al Ri-creato” ("From Creation to Re-Creation") in which a primordial nature appears, represented in black and white, with a simple and clear graphic; an intricated nature, an incomprehensible and unspoiled nature, which follows mysterious laws.
Photos, videos, posters, magazines, Cesare Fullone manufactures and activates imagination, the escape from the allocation of an I, the fracture of the rock walls of the recognition.
