Marco Silombria (Savona, 1936 - Albissola, 2014)
Painted on paper, mixed technique
Hand signed lower right "Silombria".
Painting representing a young boy swimming in a pool with colored reflections of sun and water on his skin.

Appreciated and esteemed painter and advertising graphic designer, who had established himself in Turin starting from the end of the 1960s.
Arrived in Turin in the fifties, after having taken his first steps with famous artists such as Emilio Scavanino and Lucio Fontana, in that temple of the art of ceramics that is Albisola, Silombria had made a long apprenticeship in the Sanguineti advertising agency, making himself noticed by Armando Testa. Later he had been one of the founders of the CGSS agency together with other important advertisers such as Silvio Saffirio, Gagliardi and Giorgio Caponetti.
He signed several successful campaigns: from the one for Gallo rice to the Fiat 127, to the posters for the Gruppo Finanziario Tessile. homoerotic, between the new Dadaism and pop art, between Matisse and Piero Manzoni, always in the wake of the "joie de vivre" and through reinterpretations of the Dionysian and Olympic themes of classical art

ARTIST PROFILE:
Originally from the North East of England, Gavin graduated in Fine art in 2000, and has been building his portfolio as an artist specialising in painting and screen printing - often combining the two, which helps communicate his chosen narrative. Gavin uses both vivid colours and expressive strokes to create engaging and lively pieces - his recent painting series ‘Landscapes of the Mind’ used the fluidity and movement of the paint to convey how an environment can effect ones state of thinking.
Alongside his painting, Gavin is an established screen-printer exhibiting at many galleries across the U.K. and with new clients in New York his international profile is starting to expand. A regular at the Affordable Arts Fair, Gavin was one of 20 artists chosen to work alongside Film Four for an exhibition at Somerset House. His screen-prints often depict colourful, nostalgic images. Iconic designs which are humorous ornamentation and invite an opening for conversation. Gavin takes an original painting and creates many separate layers of half tones to screen-print by hand the final piece. Using this method he captures many textures and depths of colour within a piece of work.
He recently designed and created a piece of work for the charity Help Refugee's 'Choose Love' campaign in conjunction with Printclub and the celebrated designer Katharine Hamnett, highlighting the current plight of refugees.
Gavin's ongoing dedication has led to various interviews surrounding his work and being featured in The Times by the art critic, Nancy Durrant, as part of her great art gift guide...
