Alessandro Padovan

Alessandro Padovan, a contemporary Italian artist, embarked on his artistic journey by co-founding the artistic duo Drill Monkeys Art Duo in 2012. Subsequently, he continued to evolve independently from January 2017, marking a distinctive phase in his creative exploration.

This artistic venture led Alessandro to adopt an alternative technique, merging self-tapping screws with acrylic paint on panels. The innovative approach aimed at introducing a three-dimensional quality to his works, skillfully straddling the realms of sculpture and painting. The self-tapping screws, strategically placed at varying depths, create different planes, providing a unique structure through which figures and forms emerge.

Alessandro Padovan's pioneering technique, known as Screw Art, is characterized by its lesser-known status, driving the artist's mission to raise awareness about this unconventional form of art. In recent years, he has successfully showcased his creations in galleries, auction houses, and art fairs both in Italy and abroad. Additionally, his works have graced significant charity gala events, further establishing his presence in the art world.

The essence of Padovan's art lies in the originality of his technique, where the three-dimensional effects are achieved by intricately screwing common screws at various depths. Through the application of paint on these screws, the ordinary is transformed into a contemporary fusion of sculpture and painting. Alessandro Padovan's artistic odyssey continues to push boundaries and contribute to the broader recognition of Screw Art as a compelling and innovative form within the contemporary art scene.
