Artworks classification

Original Artwork

Original Artwork refers to any work that is considered authentic and not a copy or imitation of the original works of an artist. Original artwork can be any type of painting, sculpture, performance, or other media. There are many types of original media. Mixed media includes oil, acrylic, and watercolor paintings. For workshop paintings that bear evidence of master craftsmanship, this attribution must be further qualified. While they may be less valuable for different reasons, reproductions and copies have had a tremendous impact on our experience. They reach a greater audience than originals and act as a tonic against commodification. Original Artwork could also refer to the first work, which is always preceding all others. It could also refer to a prototype or a model from which other works can be made. Each work bears great similarities to the original.

Antonio Fumagalli

Italy

Antonio Fumagalli was born in Mariano C.se, lives and works in Brianza in Giussano.
For years he has combined architecture with art and teaching.
His research allowed him to experiment and subsequently create an approach to art and a personal style that have as their distinctive feature the use of an ancient but absolutely innovative material in the artistic field: leather.
The study and in-depth knowledge of this material and its processing techniques have led to a purely artistic use of leather. The piece of leather is no longer used as a simple support material for bags, straps, etc., but as an instrument of expression, like oil colors for the painter or marble for the sculptor.
His works, as he himself claims, should not just be looked at: they should be touched, enjoyed and perceived directly by the observer.
In addition to personal exhibitions, the artist has participated in various group exhibitions in Milan, Turin, Rome, Naples, Monza, Novara, Livorno, San Marino, in Trentino, Veneto and abroad: Lugano, London... His works are exhibited in: Milan, Monza, Rho (Mi), Uboldo di Saronno (Va), Carate B.za (Mb), Giussano (Mb), Seregno (Mb), Rovereto (Tn).
He is among the permanent artists of the Weart Gallery in Uboldo, Saronno (Va).
