AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
In a pastel blue sky, a team of vintage divers is captured mid-flight, suspended in graceful, sculptural poses. Their bodies seem to defy gravity. Below them, a neatly stacked pile of cushions—soft, crumpled, and brightly colored—appears as if torn from a bourgeois living room and transported into a metaphysical space. The effect is disorienting, a blend of athletic risk and domestic comfort, almost suggesting that certain acrobatics belong only to the realm of the mind. The series plays with the contrast between danger and safety, inviting viewers to reflect on their own limits and the boundary between reality and fiction.
The work is part of a series of 6 but can be purchased separately.
Andrea Buglisi (Palermo, 1974) is a visual artist and has been a teacher of Painting Disciplines at the Palermo Art High School since 2005.
Graduated in Decoration from the Academy of Fine Arts with a thesis on Graffitism, he has been active since 1996 with works of painting and hybridization between media. His creations have been exhibited in prestigious national and international venues, including the Mart in Trento and Rovereto, Riso in Palermo, Stadtgalerie in Kiel, Museum Kunstpalast in Düsseldorf, and the Venice Biennale.
Since 2018, he has focused on urban regeneration through public art and street art, conveying social messages in at-risk neighborhoods. Among his most notable interventions:
The 'Fides' mural in Palermo appears in a Netflix documentary.
The Gate of the Giants (portraits of Falcone and Borsellino) at the Ucciardone bunker hall, winner of the international award 'Best of May 2021' by Street Art Cities.
The urban diptych 'Controcorrente' in Cefalù was included among the 100 most beautiful murals in the world in 2022.
He participated in international festivals in Belgium and Germany, and since 2023, he has been the artistic director of Bashke Urban Art in Piana degli Albanesi. His work has been reviewed by outlets such as the New York Times, Variety, Corriere della Sera, and published in various art volumes.
