Alessandro Casetti, born in 1981 in Bagno di Romagna, Italy, is a multi-talented artist who excels as a painter, singer, and musician. He obtained a diploma from the Art Institute of Sansepolcro and further honed his artistic skills through studies at the Fine Art Academy in Florence. In 2002, Casetti marked a significant milestone in his career by debuting his artwork at a renowned art gallery in Florence. Subsequently, he has continued to make his mark on the global art scene, participating in numerous successful international exhibitions and establishing himself as a prominent figure in the art world.
His paintings metaphorically represent all the emotional processes that happen inside and outside of our own bodies. The fusion of the colorful poured color fields mixed with portraiture demonstrate that inside is the root of everything that will happen outside. Cracks of color open into a space where everything dissolves to make way for a better and responsible future.
Casetti uses industrial paints, water, and white spirit enamels applied solely by gravity on wood or canvas. The colors take on different shapes and textures creating a crackle effect. The work becomes material, alive. The result is something infinitely large or infinitely small; a satellite vision of the planet, the cracks of the parched earth, fossils of ancient lakes; or maybe, on the opposite side of the spectrum, the slow progress of mold seen through a microscope.
Casetti has had numerous solo and group exhibitions in Italy, the Netherlands, Germany, Denmark, Taiwan, and the United States.
