Giuliano Sale

Italy, 1977

Biography

Giuliano Sale was born in Cagliari in 1977. He gained his artistic maturity at the Liceo Artistico Statale di Cagliari pupil of Gaetano Brundu.

In 2000 he began attending the Man Ray Cultural Center in Cagliari where he actively collaborates and takes part in various events and shows such as Stanze and Imperfetto Futuro. Lives and works in Quartu S.Elena. He works in the fields of painting, scenography and installation.

“I approach painting as if I had to tidy up a room the day after a party.” In every situation created, we find an organized chaos, where bodies or parts of it and objects are intertwined in an orgiastic way, recreating complex scenarios but well adapted in the context. The inserted elements are everyday objects, legs, tongues, cigarettes and they are part of the artist’s immediate memory in front of the painting, random, each fragment is a synthesis of the complete element.
With an outspoken anthropological reflection on the perversions and morbidity of the contemporary human being, Giuliano Sale transfigures the actors directing them into vicious, almost pornographic, unbridled lust and ambiguous situations, leaving the viewer to reflect on its own intimacy.
