ANTONY SQUIZZATO

The emergence of Pop-constructivism

Born in 1975, Squizzato began a full-time painting career in 2013, after fifteen years of creative direction in the digital advertising industry. He reached the limits of the system – inventiveness for brands – to finally feel the urgency of his own creation and realize a vital need to free his imagination.

As a polymorphous artist, Squizzato is a permanent seeker. A free mind, in search of meaning to escape the dictatorship of instant information, to observe a cynical vision produced by a sanitized marketing world.

Squizzato uses the technology of his time, digitized, rationalized, as well as oil techniques from the old masters.  He constantly challenges himself, while being inspired by movements that have always influenced; Cubism, Constructivism and Suprematism, Bauhaus, and lately Pop-Surrealism.

As for Zigotos, most of his works depict a dual society of networks and loneliness, the transfiguration of identity through screens and devices.
