Fabio Coruzzi
Fabio Coruzzi prefers the content instead of the package. Each artwork has a specific introduction written as a poetic statement. The artist does not follow any narrative in particular. He is inspired by single episodes, single thoughts. Coruzzi’s art is a fluid sequence of ideas projected into social commentary. Each artwork tells a story by detached, autonomous thoughts. Mixed media techniques mold together these different perspectives, creating an urban environment. Contemporary culture is made of controversy: modernity includes ugliness, imperfection, and contamination, anything that creates texture.”
Fabio Coruzzi was born in Foggia, Italy in 1975. He merges painting and photography into one imaginative image that offers a new outlook on an otherwise ordinary urban scene. His artworks represent an authenticity unlike any other: layered, textural, controversial, open to imagination, colorful, personal, and inspiring.
Coruzzi’s work encapsulates not only urban environments, but the inhabitants as well. Irony is laced between figures drawn with an energetic architectural hand. His work is colorful, funny, and biting through resolutely rendered vignettes of collective cultural consciousness.
Of his work, he says, "Making a statement reduces the possibility for an artist to research and explore at 360 degrees. Any statement can be changed and reinterpreted at any time…infinite times. I create my art to be free to develop within any direction. Each project of mine will be more like a book, or a movie. It is right there and stays right there. What comes next is life and its unknown, restless evolution."
