CUT is Carlo Cazzaniga’s alter ego.
Born in 1964, he is a member of the last “black & white” generation.
Trained as an artisan, he found his esthetic ideal in this project.
He revisits modern archetypes of hyperconsumerism and the icons of mass communication, wedding them to the most primitive and vital material in the history of the world: wood.
The result is a provocative paradox: barely concealed behind a lighthearted esthetic narrative there lies a savage attack on contemporary society and its idolatry of “golden calves”. The combination of sign and material produces unique works, whose essential quality expresses the experience of an entire world of emotions connected with the representational arts.
