MA09 presents the Paintings of Marco Grassi in MA’ology “The Itlalian Style” Exhibition

Italian painter Marco Grassi (Milan) is very talented and in demand these days for all the right reasons. Grassi is not however, a slave to pandering in fashion, does not just stamp out paintings, nor is he corrupted by other cliche’s that distract from the seriousness of his work. Art can be made accessible for all the wrong reason-trends - money and greed have to top the list. So when a painter comes along who is removed from such superficial tendencies, you have something- and that something is Marco Grassi, who happily is the exception. Grassi’s work is thoughtful, honest, carefully and painstakingly executed.

Italian Painter, Marco Grassi in MA-ology’s “The Italian Style” Exhibition

The modern woman is Grassi’s muse for which he makes no excuses.  And upon closer examination of Grassi’s paintings, one comes to realize what Grassi paints is not only captured in the subject’s obvious body language but also in what the eyes and soul suggests, this ability is among Grassi’s signature gifts. The color pink is also an important constant in Grassi’s work and his past shows reflect that fact with names that capture the imagination like “Save The Pink”, “Kissing The Pink”, and “Love Me Tender”.

Marco Grassi one-man exhibition is part of the much anticipated MA-ology “The Italian Style” and CARE Fundraiser (for more CARE Fundraiser click here).
