CRISTIANO PINTALDI - FROM MATTER TO LIGHT

October 3, 2015 > January 10, 2016
curated by Stella Santacatterina

MACRO Testaccio

Promoted by Assessorato Cultura e Sport di Roma - Sovrintendenza Capitolina ai Beni Culturali, in collaborazione con la Galleria Mucciaccia

The Roman Christian Pintaldi is known and appreciated for his personal technique of decomposition in pixels that allows him to recreate digital images on canvas.

Initially Pintaldi lends his attention to television - in the nineties unique container of "shared reality" - developing a painting that, through the use of primary colors, red, green and blue on a black background, combined in the same way in which the pixels are arranged to create the image on the TV screen, creates works that recall the construction point of digital images, composed of many pixels, choosing subjects from popular culture, from TV shows, cartoons, cult movies and films of Kubrick.

During the exhibition will be organized an educational section where you can watch the backstage of the production of a work by the artist.
