Mattia Moreni
Mattia Moreni is an Italian painter and sculptor, a representative of the abstract trend in Italian art.
The artist is interesting because he went through all the significant phases in the art of the 20th century. Beginning with figurative fovea and expressionism, he turned to post-cubism and then to abstract-concrete forms. Later Moreni turns to informal and neo-expressionism. Decay, death and splendor become the themes of his work. After anthropoid watermelons, the decline of the human species is captured by the artist through other images: sterile female macros and sets of symbols, including the relationship between humanoid computer and humanoid computer.
Moreni's paintings have received wide international acclaim.
