Massimo
Castronuovo
Massimo Castronuovo was born in Turin
in 1970, where he actually lives. His sense of art is due to some
difficult period that brought him to voice his ideas. Self-taught
artist, he followed his passion as an instinct, without artistic
rules but using the materials that satisfied his needs. His origins are
the reason of his love for the South of Italy and it produces a contradictory
sense of love and hate for the industrial town where he lives. This
is the main contrast that brings him to an interior conflict and
it caused his inspiration energy. His style, original and personal, represents
with his waves the emotions he feels in every single moment of his
work. His inspiration come from some kind of incomprehension, where
the reason is a victim of the events and the result is a sum of thoughts
that shape in waves. These waves remember the female curves that
appear with obsession and tangle, producing a sensual and harmonious balance.
His works show a need of expression: the big surfaces want to represent
the big thoughts coming from the reality, where everything is changeable
and victim of the time.
Artistic personality
Castronuovo’s work is out of every
possible classification but is shows an unusual brightness and balance.
Is neither abstract nor figurative painting but rather direct expression
of the soul. In 1992/93 he started to experiment and to combine the
different artistic techniques that brought him to his personal painting
universe. Looking at the daily life, Massimo Castronuovo is the regulator
of his own world that he represent with a thick interlace of lines,
creating black and white spaces. The opposition between black and
white, symbol of the eternal contrast between matter and energy, is
very important in his painting: the energy, using the white colours
is translated in light and plasma, in free shape compositions never
let to chance. And the light is the essential value that shows Castronuovo’s
search of depth and his passion for the sculpture. Regarding his technique,
the recent works are rich in new colours, coming from the experimentalism
with different materials (such as acrylic, colouring-matter, oil,
charcoal pencil, coloured crayon). In his artistic search, Castronuovo
carefully selects materials, often represented by esteemed cotton
paper. Recently, he produced big size paintings and, in private locals,
some “murales”.
