Vita / Lebenslauf:
Ivan Melzi Born in Sesto San Giovanni (Milan) on June 9th 1966 and lives and works in Cinisello Balsamo (Mi). Interested in painting and graphics since a child, he attended specialized artistic-professional schools, gaining diplomas in publicity graphics and interior design. In his early years of artistic activity he favored oil painting, although not ignoring charcoal, pencil, watercolor or Indian ink drawing. His subjects were mainly landscapes, still life and portraits. A member of the “Il Naviglio” artistic-cultural circle, he has participated in both regional and national exhibitions and shows, receiving recognitions and awards. Collaborating with architects for the creation of large illustrations, Ivan was able to approach and practice new techniques such as the aerographic, a potent and versatile instrument that has allowed him to achieve notable realistic effects. And finally, the arrival of IT has allowed him to express his creativity at its best. The purchase of his first Macintosh goes back to 1980, a true investment for the scarcely fourteen year old Ivan that opened the road for him for his first work with publicity agencies and studios as a graphic artist and illustrator. The passion and constant attention to technological development led him, then, to encounter, during the 90’s, the world of the web. Today Ivan is the Webmaster in an agency in Milan.
Professional growth and the continuous and rapid development of information technology finished by penalizing over time Ivan’s original love for painting that now, also thanks to the experience accumulated in other creative worlds, is offered again in absolutely modern and innovations forms. Leaving figurative art, Ivan today creates large format three-dimensional works where color is used as a material in itself that united with elements anomalous to traditional painting widens expressive possibilities. It can be argued that Ivan’s works open the road to a new way of understanding pictorial work as an autonomous objective construction that our artist likes to define as “poly-dimensional”. In effect, also thanks to the use of innovative and unusual materials, his paintings are tactile, three-dimensional and volumetric, particularly suitable to the modern environment and Hi-Tech.
