In mid-November 2019 ArtePadova celebrates its thirtieth edition: four pavilions, around three hundred Italian and foreign galleries, thousands of works by seven hundred artists. Among them is Giuliano Grittini, whom Amalart has followed for years and had accompanied to China in 2017, as special guest of Michel Aubéry's exhibition in Wuhan.
Born in Corbetta in 1951, Grittini trained as an art printer. With lithography and screen printing he worked alongside Warhol, Guttuso, Fiume and Rotella, and for years he was Alda Merini's photographer. From this experience comes Cracker Art: iconic images of popular culture, from cinema to old master painting, broken down and recomposed with collage, papers, bright colours and handwriting. Faces such as the Mona Lisa, Sophia Loren or Frank Sinatra become layered surfaces, halfway between memory and pop.
Amalart handled the communication of Grittini's participation on the Chinese market, giving continuity to the work begun with the artist in Wuhan.
