Transforming a material into a work of art is a talent that few possess, I have already written about artists who create works of art from paper and also those who create works of art from glass, in this post I want to share with you the most beautiful works of art from wood.
These are works created by extraordinary artists, who can magically extract wonderful objects, statues and works of art from a piece of wood.
Wooden works of art
If you go to Bologna, pass by the bus station and observe the works of CHEAP street poster art, a public art project, a collective, a non-objective gaze.
Founded in Bologna in 2013 from the creative understanding and determination of 6 women, CHEAP has curated and realised paper-based public art interventions: paste-up, i.e. the use of paper and glue, is both the technique investigated by the project and a declaration of intent in terms of dedication to the ephemeral and research of the contemporary as temporary.
CHEAP now brings a new public art intervention on the street: TACI, or rather PARLIAMO
From 10 June until the end of September 2022, 50 new posters will mark the 250 square metre wall of the Bologna bus station in Viale Masini.
TACI, anzi PARLIAMO
Born in Brazil and raised in Miami, Romero Britto is the founder of the Happy Art Movement and innovator of POP-CULTURE.
Creating a visual language of love, hope and happiness Britto uses vibrant and fun images to reflect his optimistic view of the world.
Romero Britto has combined his playful, multi-coloured style with some of the world’s most prestigious brands such as Dolce & Gabbana, Vodka Absolute, Disney and is now starting a collaboration with Bellini Nautica, a leading Italian shipyard in the restoration of vintage Riva boats and the sale of new and used yachts.

“The queen of super-realism” is how art historian John Spike described Carole A. Feuerman, the American artist famous the world over for her coloured resin sculptures.
The subjects that have characterised her artistic career from the very beginning are swimmers, women depicted in a moment of stillness, athletic figures portrayed in the act of greatest physical tension, up to the latest homages to the great classics.

The largest collection of works by Pietro Aldi is preserved in Saturnia, at the Polo Culturale named after the artist.
Inaugurated in 2016, the Polo Culturale Pietro Aldi houses the largest collection of works by the artist, is home to a library for children and young people, and organises temporary exhibitions of the highest calibre.
I recently visited the Polo Culturale Pietro Aldi, and in this post I will tell you about the life and works of an artist who told the great story of Italy.
