The artworks of Bios become vocal through some specific codes investigating into the private and public subconscious with an art which is always based on the intrusion of a performing action both in terms of its being the structure of a scene where hunters shoot virtually their prey, a metaphor “par excellence”, as much as when the artist embodies the “Pinocchio” or simulates crucifixions.

Trivignano is a small country village very close to Slovenia, where PERSISTERS live. With ...
In a subversive and humorous way, Maurizio Cattelan (September 21, 1960, Padova, Italy) manages to breach the rules of the art world, delivering ironic comments on socially controversial subject. Racist tendencies in Italy or the influence of the mafia are just as likely to provide the themes of his occasionally interventionist work as intrinsically "artistic" topics are.
Since he is skilled at exploiting the workings of the art business, his methodology is often described as ...
Damien Hirst became famous overnight at the end of the 1980s, not only as an artist but also as a curator. His group exhibitions "Freeze" (1988), and "Modern Medicine" (1990), launched Young British Art.
