Federico Cabras ( 29 September 1997) is an Italian painter and illustrator especially known for joining and following the neo-expressionist art movement.[1][2][3]
Biography
[edit]The artist, born in Bosa, a small town in Italy, in 1997[1], despite his young age during his middle school years at the end of the 2000s, became fascinated with abstract art, delighting in covering the covers and pages of his school notebooks with abstract shapes correlated to geometric projection art.[4][5]
Several years later, upon reaching the age of majority, the artist continued his work as a self-taught artist, refining his technique to make each of his artistic works distinct and uncommon.[6] He began to use bright colors, primarily red to fill in, and black to outline and delineate the shapes of each of his artistic works[2].[7]
He gained popularity in early 2020 when several Italian and foreign art curators and newspapers published and invited him to participate in various exhibitions and fairs in Italy and later in Europe and the U.S[8][7]. However, the artist chose to accept only a few proposals and maintain his independence.[9]
The artist is particularly known for his artistic ideas against populism, but in favor of a more equitable redistribution of global capital[6][3].
Artistic influences
[edit]All of his artistic production is mainly inspired by American and South American street art from the 1980s and 1990s and Spanish abstract art from the early of 20th century[8].
