Taraski, Flowers N.48, Acrylic on Canvas, 2001

About This Piece

Neapolitan creativity and Savoyard balance, in short, Taraski, the stage name chosen by Giancarlo Taraschi, born in 1962 in Turin where he lives and works, but who likes to emphasize that he was conceived under Vesuvius, ... by authentic Neapolitan parents.
Taraski discovered his passion for painting in 1988; it was during this time, alternating between long periods of meditation and dwelling maniacally on the use of pigments and the search for gestural expressiveness -including through the practice of shodō- that his uniqueness was outlined, always stepping outside the box!
We begin to catch a glimpse of what would in the future be the characteristic thematic core of his activity: reflection on the role of the image in mass media society, the influences of American "pop" culture, the use of brazen colors and the strong experimental character.
He never conformed to any artistic current or vision. In the end, the ultimate figure is always his own, even in uncertainty, even when he fails.
His own working method is very much related to gestures derived from the practice of Aikido (which he teaches to the kids in his academy).
He has three children, two of whom are still young. His inner child is vital; when he creates he does so freely, without worrying too much about the result.
His love of nature has led him recently, uncritically and purposefully, to talk about alternative energies in his works.
