Moreno Ugo

Moreno Ugo is an Italian-Argentine artist whose work mediates between cultures and continents. Born in Italy and living in Argentina for a long time, he is characterized by a dual artistic perspective: European tradition and Latin American expressiveness merge in his work to create a distinctive style.


His works – often abstract, sometimes figuratively punctuated – reflect memories, emotion, and the search for identity. Moreno Ugo prefers to work with acrylic, collage, and mixed media on canvas. His signature style is the play with surfaces, texture, and color layering – sometimes wild, sometimes controlled, always permeated by inner tension. The combination of geometric order with gestural elements gives his paintings a poetic rhythm that speaks of movement, migration, and transformation.

The combination of Ugo's contemporary style with Dürer's classical aesthetic results in an exciting dialogue between tradition and modernity. Ugo experiments with different color palettes and textures to enhance the emotional depth and symbolic meanings of the original works. These reinterpretations invite the audience to engage with the themes of Dürer's art while experiencing the creative freedom and expression of contemporary artistry.

Moreno Ugo's work has been presented in various exhibitions and has delighted both art lovers and critics. His colorized prints are a fascinating example of how contemporary artists can revitalize historical masterpieces and give them their own voice .
