    Andrea Colombu, was born in Cagliari in 1973 where, still today, he lives and works. During his adolescence he enrolled at the “Foiso Fois” State High School in Cagliari.
    He graduated in the mid-1990s and moved to Perugia, where he attended the “Pietro Vannucci” Academy of Fine Arts. The first works are from that decade, and the initial themes that characterize them are strongly influenced by the gestural painting, and refer to artistic movements such as Informal Art.
    While formal research pushes him into the study of purer geometries, the contamination of conceptual art leads him to marry the idea of symbolic content.
    The last years of the decade see him in full experimentation with materials. Paper, stone, iron, coal, chalk and ink.
    After completing his academic studies, in 2000 he completely abandoned the use of the subject to face new techniques and compositional processes, such as photography and vector graphics, often supported by drawing.
    Daily processes that take on a meditative and introspective character, in the observation of contemporary society.

    CATWORLD

    At least since the last century, painting has ceased to be a way of looking at the world, becoming instead a massive synaesthesia. In the absence of predetermined boundaries, painting has wandered through the senses, uniting everything it could unite. Whatever the subject, the language of reference or the styles used, the act of painting today thrives on a melting pot of stimuli: it is matter, color, composition, but also lived emotion, memory; post-figurative and post-media, it plays on many fields, intertwining the visibility of everyday life with the artificial dimension of reality.

    In short, if complexity is the original sin of contemporary painting, it is clear that even a small exhibition like this one by Nicola, which is almost monothematic, offers a multiplicity of ideas and possible paths. You can use it as a map of the linguistic evolutions of the last decade or as a field research for the figurative references that lurk in its patterns; one can lose oneself in the evocative power of color, follow the material stratification of surfaces, or be inspired by its narrative suggestions. In any case, at some point, you will realize that you lost your objective, because the contamination tension of the elaborations does not allow a singular and directional development. It is therefore normal that, in the end, we’re stuck with the cat.

    P.S. For the record, the cat really exists and it is an integral part of the family.
