Italian artist Giovanni Tresso offers a glimpse into the portals of the human soul. Each portrait is the result of an intimate interlude between the commissioner and the artist that fuses painting and photography. Tresso meets the subject in person and builds his paintings on a collection of impromptu snapshots that reveal microexpressions and movements indicative of their personality. The key is to catch the sitter off guard, so that they abandon their defensive social barriers and expose their authentic essence. Echoing his background in design and advertising, Tress's works possess a distinctive graphic aesthetic. The facial traits are carved out using negative space and a highly contrasting bichromatic palette of white and either blue, red, green, or black. This, combined with the imposing scale of the pieces, garners a powerful magnetic quality that keeps the viewer glued to the canvas.

ALVIANI × ANCIENT

Getulio Alviani (1939-2018)
a leading figure in the kinetic art movement,
Alviani's work transcended mediums and disciplines, including painting, printmaking,sculpture, jewellery, architecture and industrial design. He was one of
the main animators of the aesthetic debate on programmed art and has been internationally recognised since the beginning of the sixties.
Starting in 1961, Alviani was included in novet tendencije (new tendencies),a series of exhibitions in Zagreb, Croatia, which gathered concrete and
constructive artists who sought to create work that reflected the era's advancements in mass production. In 1965 he participated in the exhibition the responsive eye at the Moma in New York, aged just 26, the exhibition placed him at the international forefront of the programmed art movement.
In 2000, Moma included his work in the exhibition open ends, a show dedicated to the most pioneering artists of the last four decades.
Alviani participated in the Venice biennale four times, in 1964, 1984,1986 and 1993, and in 1968 he exhibited at documenta 4 in Kassel.
Today his works are housed in more than 50 museum collections worldwide,including the
Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Los Angeles Museum of Contemporary Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art in Sydney, the Kunstmuseum Basel, the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo in Buenos Aries and la Galleria Nazionale in Rome.

No exhibition of optical art is complete without recognising the achievements of Alviani.
