Artist: Giorgio Tentolini (Italy, b. 1978)
喬治·坦托里尼 (Giorgio Tentolini ) 出生於義大利卡薩爾馬焦雷,他在帕爾馬的Toschi Art Institute接受平面藝術培訓並畢業於University of Reggio Emilia設計與傳播系。畢業後成為獲獎的攝影師,常與時尚品牌與雜誌合作,而攝影的專業訓練更對喬治的創作有深遠影響,尤其他擅長將圖像以明暗對比、光影變化的方式拆解分析。
Giorgio的經典系列即為在單色背景上,以層層手工切割的鐵絲疊加、不使用任何顏料描繪古典雕像、建築或人類面部等。對他來說媒材至關重要,啜手可得的鐵絲是藝術家自身經驗的展現,同時他也希望觀者用自己的親身經驗去解讀媒材。作品中鐵絲構成的六邊形網眼相互交織、位移、重疊成層層net(網),象徵現代生活、internet與filter, 越仔細看,反而越看不清楚整體樣貌。但同時,又如像素般記錄著記憶、願景和夢想。
Giorgio Tentolini was born in Casalmaggiore (Cremona) in 1978, he trained in Graphic Arts at the Toschi Art Institute in Parma, to graduate in design and communication at the University of Reggio Emilia. After stages with artists such as Marco Nereo Rotelli, he began a very personal research with installations on a photographic basis, for which he immediately obtained significant recognition. His paintings are influenced by his work as a photographer when he used to break down images in chiaroscuro levels.
Each of his works is born from a precise investigation of Time as memory and identity, in a careful and slow reconstruction that takes place with the study of light and the engraving of layers of different materials, fabrics, papers, PVC. Tulle and adhesive tape are the current medium of his search for the meditative lightness that its layers give back to the image, a metaphor for places and memories, dreams and visions. A pictorial work living the reality of sculpture.
Through the stratification of memories and experiences, the image resurfaces in this intangible substance, made possible only by losing oneself in a vision that does not follow the cognitive parameters of perception, raising doubts and questions about the true consistency of human being and the impossibility of fully grasping the essence of reality.
