Moreno Ugo
Myths and art
Moreno Ugo
Moreno Ugo now lives and works in Venice, Italy. Before that, he worked for 17 years in Cordoba, Argentina. In his works, two elements combine to form an ideal synthesis: the typical form of Renaissance frescoes and abstract painting. The ancient world of mythical gods, Mediterranean ideas, all of this is concentrated in the artist's works.
It is no coincidence that Moreno Ugo's artistic training began at the Art School of Padua and was completed at the Academy of Venice, attending courses given by the artist Emilio Vedova, one of the most internationally recognized artists of abstract expressionism, and master of Pino Ponti in the surrealist group. The experience of living in Argentina from 2009 to 2017, human and environmental experiences capable of causing moments of breakdown and doubt, are the origin of many works.
