Giovanni Blanco

Giovanni Blanco was born in Ragusa in 1980. He studied painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in Bologna with Massimo Pulini.
His expressive research is studded with a poetic imagery conceived in narrative cycles, where every single image is thought of as a fragment of a wider, ‘plural’ discourse, thus experiencing painting as a means and never as an end.

“For me, the painting is an open device, a bearer of trespassing and memories, in order to organise thoughts that are able to return this multi-directional gaze of mine.”
He currently lives and works in Modica (RG).
