About

The work of Giuseppe Fontanarosa aims to give a proposition; one that touches and evokes. He aims to shuffle the cards of the conceptual and pictorial often referring to political, social and philosophical themes. In his synthesis, materials, media and styles become just a critical tool in order to put forward his belief.
