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 reactivation of a masterpiece of Italian Baroque.
In the seventeenth-century painting, Love triumphs over the arts, over weapons, and over 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, crossed by tattoos that replace the traditional symbolic attributes; the Caravaggesque light gives way to a violet neon atmosphere; the overlaid message — “IT’S NOT LOVE I’M JUST DRUNK” — undermines the rhetoric of absolute love, turning the victory into excess, disorientation, contemporary confession.
The work dialogue with the Italian Baroque tradition while maintaining the chiaroscuro power and the theatricality of the pose, but overturning the meaning: no longer moral allegory, but a disillusioned icon of contemporary culture.
This research fits into Slasky’s artistic path, already presented on the occasion of the Wopart Art Fair 2019 at the Lugano Exhibition Centre (a work different from the present).

An artwork that unites the memory of the Seicento with contemporary visual culture, conceived for collectors seeking conceptual, museum-worthy, and strongly identity-driven works.
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 representing them with novelty »
Slasky is a renowned 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 classic style, he unites tradition and modernity, bringing the protagonists of the 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.
