Painter, sculptor, and “nobilizador” (a
technique that consists on owning another
art piece, remake it, enrich it, and
give it back differently; “signing
over another signature, but taking
on the art piece, acquiring it if you
want to” just as it was written
by the well known Italian art critique
Giorgio Celli).
It is considered an Italian plastic teacher, “an
innovative man who fills with pride the
arts” as it was said by the Italian
ambassador here in Costa Rica at the
conference in Pueblarte. (9/09/2004)
Figurative and abstract, he uses the
collage, the assembling, and the scenic
art resources. This tireless traveler
has made more than 200 individual expositions
and 300 collective ones. Many of his
art work is found in important museums
around the world: Madrid, Stockholm,
Moscow, San Marino, Paris, New York,
and Rome.
His mainly erotic work does not isolate
the surroundings, cultures, which are
kept in maps of embedded women bodies
such as violins and flowers-cocoons-female
genitalia, in which poetic texts are
highlighted, and always shown the scent
of his beloved Venice, his oldest partner
such as women, as it was said by him “they
are the origin of everything, the world
revolves around the woman”. Zattarin
is a visual musician that reminds us
that detail in front of our eyes, but
that we do not admire until we see one
of his paintings.
He was the winner of the second place
at the fourth International Biennial
in Madrid, Spain. |
