Canadian poet and writer turned painter, Luigi Monteferrante’s focus is on figurative narrations and modern mythologies. Works are driven by narrative, the framework a stage wherein the characters are portrayed at a pivotal point in space-time, their decision of consequence, sometimes grave, often amusing, or enigmatic. The viewer is often cast in a pivotal role, the outcome, hence, shifted; from this other perspective, a wholly different and unexpected end and finale. And back again to a simple, straighforward aesthetic experience – and divertissement. Prolific, obsessed, Monteferrante often works in series: Romans!; Wall Street Warriors, or the Blue Room; Victoriana; Speed!, Street Life, and the ongoing Figurative Narrations & Modern Mythologies. His most recent works are: Sex $ Drugs £ Rock & Roll; and True North. To CONTACT Luigi, email: info@luigimonteferrante.com
