Italo Corrado (Born 1973) was born in Paderno Dugnano (MI). He is a conceptual artist and an expressionist-abstract. He’s a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts of Brera. In his paintings, Corrado paints with a lot of energy addressing the issues that echo with strange voice the edge of the city and within the inner cores of the city. He likes to casually depict the mirror of an upper-class society and, at the same time, the upsetting reality of the suburbs. He touches on the deepest bowels from which emerge unabashed basic and unhappy prospects. In his succession of scenarios, the viewers experience the noise, the lights, and the places where people collide but where, ironically, never occur. All of Corrado’s paintings depict certain reflections of the reality that pulsate through color reflecting a process of transformation that excludes nothing but where everything mixes together.
The artist investigates the perceptual dynamics in abstract and naturalistic key, competing with large multi-ethnic spaces. Corrado chose the theme of the city in order to question the identity of man before his fate. In his paintings, the silhouettes of these houses and the metropolitan buildings take on a surreal value, drawing the viewer to an explosive vortex where violence, speed and tone of the art summarizes the artist's thought - sometimes smiling and carefree, and other times distressing and troubling. The artist avoids showing the presence of man in his paintings in order to bring out the sense of loneliness and abandonment ... His works can well be described as "memory wall" because they evoke memories and reality which has been lost with the passage of time.
