Stefano Serretta [Genova, 1987]

serrettastefano@gmail.com

 

 

The work of Stefano Serretta is supported by a rigorous historical and analytical framework, which aims to highlight the fragile self-celebrating foundations of globalized capitalism and the communicative machine that regulates it, of which man is both the protagonist and victim. With an inquiring gaze, Serretta highlights the contradictions and schizophrenic aspects of our post-ideological present. He is currently professor of Public Art at NABA Nuova Accademia di Belle Arti, Milano.
