Red Carpet is a tribute to the Venice Film Festival by artist Carlo Massimo Franchi, a great experimenter, who confronts himself with different styles, from figurative to abstract. We find in this very composition both references to the series of Mediterranean Women, inspired by his master Salvatore Fiume, and hints of his famous Kalos. Further evolution occurs with the Stargate Light line, of which this work is a part: everything comes to life thanks to the internal LED lighting that changes the chromatic perception of the surface. In fact, the color varies in different shades from minute to minute, constantly stunning the observer.
1961 Pavia, Italy
Carlo Massimo Franchi (Pavia 1961) graduated at Brera Accademy, where he knew his Master Salvatore Fiume. His early works are strongly influenced by Fiume. The series called Mediterranean women is the best example: sensual women with soft curves, in Oriental atmospheres.
During the later period his style changes in a painting characterized by bright and flat colours. He realizes many works on commission and the series of Kaleidos, in which Cubist influences and the refined line of classical Greek art are mixed up.
He exhibits his works in many Italian and foreign cities (Milan, Turin, Palermo... San Francisco, Los ANgeles, Las Vegas...).
Now he lived and works in Novara.
