Description from the seller

AMORE VINCITORE – After Orazio Riminaldi
Original reinterpretation by Slasky

Inspired by the famous Amor Vincitore by Orazio Riminaldi (Pisa, 1593–1630), this work is conceived as a contemporary activation of a masterpiece of Italian Baroque.

In the seventeenth-century painting, Love triumphs over the arts, arms, and earthly knowledge. In this reinterpretation, the triumph becomes ambiguous, urban, nocturnal.

The angelic figure is transported to the present: the body becomes a narrative surface, pierced by tattoos that replace the traditional symbolic attributes; Caravaggesque light gives way to a violet neon ambience; the overlaid message — “IT’S NOT LOVE I’M JUST DRUNK” — undermines the rhetoric of absolute love, turning victory into excess, bewilderment, and contemporary confession.

The work engages with the Italian Baroque tradition while preserving the chiaroscuro power and the theatrical pose, yet inverting the meaning: no longer moral allegory, but a disenchanted icon of contemporary culture.

This research sits within Slasky’s artistic path, already presented at Wopart Art Fair 2019 at the Lugano Exhibition Centre (a different work from the present one).





A work that unites the memory of the Seicento with contemporary visual culture, conceived for collectors seeking conceptual, museum-worthy, and strongly identitary pieces.

Not a quotation.
A collision between sacred and profane.
A victory that today is no longer innocent.

« Art is not about representing new things, but about representing them with novelty »

Slasky is an established Italian artist whose works have been shown in solo and group exhibitions internationally.

The artist has the ability to fuse classical artworks with techniques of contemporary digital art. With his neo-urban classical style, he merges tradition and modernity, bringing the protagonists of original artworks into contemporary social and artistic environments.


Slasky (b. 1972, Italy) is a self-taught artist working from Artena, Rome. His practice emerged from outside the institutional art system — a background in manual labour that informs both the materiality of his work and the precision of its conceptual framework. Active since 2015, he has built an independent market presence across Europe and Asia before undertaking a decisive shift toward institutional research practice.
