Retouchè.
The work is signed on the lower right.
Edition 15 of 20.
Black and White: retouch is taken from the unique work of the famous collection of the contemporary artist Carlo Massimo Franchi, Kaleidos. As an attentive artist involved in contemporary reality, Carlo Massimo Franchi uses the canvas to express and communicate different feelings and moods, expressed through color. The work focuses on shades of black and white, with abstract signs on a dark background. On the edges, on the right and on the left, two profiles appear to be outlined in white, silhouettes of human faces which are the subject on which much of Franchi's art is based.
1961 Pavia, Italy
Carlo Massimo Franchi (Pavia 1961) graduated at Brera Accademy, where he knew his Master Salvatore Fiume. His early works are strongly influenced by Fiume. The series called Mediterranean women is the best example: sensual women with soft curves, in Oriental atmospheres.
During the later period his style changes in a painting characterized by bright and flat colours. He realizes many works on commission and the series of Kaleidos, in which Cubist influences and the refined line of classical Greek art are mixed up.
He exhibits his works in many Italian and foreign cities (Milan, Turin, Palermo... San Francisco, Los ANgeles, Las Vegas...).
Now he lived and works in Novara.
