Title: Icona Instabile (after Giordano)
Year: 2026
Technique: digital intervention on a baroque image, fine art print on museum paper
Uniqueness: unique work

Description
In this work, Slasky intervenes on a composition by Luca Giordano, transforming it into a field of visual and political tension. The key element is the angelic figure, rewritten through Captain America iconography: the star-spangled chest and the colors directly reference the American superhero, a symbol of power, ideology and identity construction.
This overlay generates a visual and conceptual short circuit. The angel, from a figure of divine justice, becomes an ambiguous icon where sacred and propaganda coincide. It is no longer transcendence, but cultural construction.
The pictorial space is saturated with signs, writings, and stratifications that recall the global urban language. The Baroque image is not denied, but destabilized: made unstable, fragile, continuously rewriteable.
The work fits Slasky’s research into inherited images, transformed into contemporary relics traversed by conflict, memory, and power.

Artist Bio
Slasky (b. 1972, Italy) is a self-taught artist based in Artena, Rome. His work originates outside institutional structures, shaped by a background in manual labour that informs both the physicality and conceptual rigor of his practice.
Since 2015, he has developed an independent market across Europe and Asia, later evolving toward a research-driven and institutionally oriented approach.
His work has been exhibited internationally, including selection by the jury of the Rijksmuseum.
