Press Release ** Carlo Piemonti ** ’s figurative acrylic works on canvas are comprised of a delicate palette of varying shades of red. Expressionistic subjects of the everyday overlaid with dense networks of lines pursue the goal of visual balance through opposition. Absolute/ordinary, figure/ground, visual/virtual, clarity/obscurity all function as motifs in Piemonti’s work, revealing the dramatic dichotomies of contemporary spacio-temporal experience. Carlo Piemonti was born in Gorizia, Italy, where he currently lives and works. In 1995 he obtained a degree in Fine Art from the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan.
