Original work by Alessandro Alteo, characterized by a white monochrome surface, capable of generating a refined dialogue between light and shadow, matter and space.

The artist’s research roots in the great tradition of Italian extroflexion, inspired by the formal elegance and plastic tension of masters such as Agostino Bonalumi, Enrico Castellani, Paolo Scheggi, Lucio Fontana, Turi Simeti and Giuseppe Amadio, while also dialoguing with the material force of Alberto Burri and the sculptural monumentalism of Arnaldo Pomodoro, up to the monochrome and analytical explorations of Bernard Aubertin and the poetic sensibility of Giorgio Morandi. In this lineage, the painting surface becomes a living body, vibrant, sensitive to light and to the gaze.

Within modern abstract, Alteo builds a personal language that opens to modern and contemporary art, integrating influences from minimalism, Pop Art and especially Street Art and Graffiti writing. His imaginary dialogically engages with artists and movements ranging from Banksy, Keith Haring, Andy Warhol, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Jeff Koons, Roy Lichtenstein, Damien Hirst, Takashi Murakami, up to urban culture linked to Shepard Fairey (OBEY), JR, Invader, Space Invader, Jef Aérosol, C215, Futura 2000, COPE2, Vhils, D*Face, Os Gemeos, JonOne, Alec Monopoly, Speedy Graphito, Hayden Kays, Kev Munday, Chanoir.

Up to the more contemporary declinations of the international urban and post-graffiti scene, with figures such as Sandra Chevrier, Handiedan, Chuck Sperry, Borondo, PichiAvo, Orticanoodles, Inti, Saner, M-City, Levalet, Cranio, Dan23, DZIA, Hom Nguyen and André Saraiva, Mario Merz, Lucio Fontana.

Parallel, his visual sensibility feeds on a pop-luxury and collecting aesthetic, where icons of design, fashion and contemporary lifestyle—from Hermès, Dior, Chanel, Cartier, Louis Vuitton, Prada, Bulgari to the collecting imaginary surrounding Rolex, Patek Philippe, Audemars Piguet, Daytona, Nautilus, Richard Mille—coexist with references to screen printing, art prints, vinyl, analog photography, cinema, tin toys and the visual memory of the twentieth century.

There are learned references to art history, from Mario Schifano to Joan Miró, from Salvador Dalí to Pierre Soulages, contributing to reinforce the conceptual and visual dimension of the work between abstraction, matter and light.

The distinctive hallmark of Alessandro Alteo lies in the synthesis between geometric rigor and emotional lyricism, where the circle becomes a universal sign, a visual archetype and a space for contemplation.
This work thus serves as a bridge between the analytic and extroflession Italian season and a street urban contemporary sensibility, presenting itself as a piece with strong identity, visual impact and aesthetic recognizability in the panorama of contemporary art.
