Let Your Inner Child Speak!

In the Preview Berlin Art Fair, you won’t find only artists that take the everything too seriously. Art doesn’t have to be always political or negative, it can be somehow innonent, preserving our thoughts from childhood. We are talking about the work of Luca Lanzi, one of the artists that will be exhibiting at Preview Berlin at Tempelhof Airport in September. His drawings and sculptures will take you back to a child-imagined world. To know more about the artist and his work, we interviewed Luca Lanzi:

BAPS:  What are the themes you explore in your work?
LL:  Archetypal images, be they plants, animals, toys or tools in general

BAPS: What is the definition of drawing for you?
LL:  Drawing is the artistic language of the primary image germination: sign, space, form, a rigorous research of synthesis, an abstraction of metaphysical images of thoughts.

BAPS: What is your work process like? Do you do a lot of planning or do work spontaneously?

LL: Drawing is for me a spontaneous language, which is enriched along the

way, one image calls the next one. The easy management of drawing on small-size paper becomes the most suitable tool to transfer the thought immediately.
 The large format requires a project …

BAPS: What first you got interested in art?
LL: Thoughts, translated into images.

BAPS: Do you have any long term art goals, or dreams you would like to fulfill?
LL: I’m curious to see the progress of my work and whereto it will lead me
in the end.

BAPS: Is there anything else you’d like to tell us about yourself and your artwork?
LL: As well as in the drawing I work in sculpture and engraving.

BAPS: What are you expectation for Preview Art Fair Berlin?
LL: Giving my work visibility and finding out the Preview-audience’s
reaction on it.
