Celebrating the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris: The Inspiration Behind Humberto Poidomani’s Latest Masterpiece

Poidomani’s unique style embraces Naïve art, marked by childlike simplicity, bright colors, and a lack of perspective and proportion, diverging from academically trained artwork. His paintings range from small to monumental panoramic canvases, consistently displaying his critical view of the world. Through his art, he creates striking visual narratives with abysmal figures and scenarios interspersed with written phrases, including his thoughts, quotes, and excerpts from classical philosophers and writers.
In his sculptures, assemblages, installations, and art boxes, Poidomani integrates reused and found industrial materials, employing gestural and thick lines, textures, and colors interwoven with personal and literary references. Echoing the provocative essence of “arte povera,” he creates absurd, comical, yet highly subjective combinations of wires, objects, rocks, and fabrics, highlighting the fragmentation of our culture and the absence of utopias in modern times.
