artist
Giuliano Amedeo Tosi was born in Bern in 1992.
The artist started with his first professional drawings on the floor of his shared flat in 2014. That was the moment when his passion for painting was born. He acquired all his skills autodidactically.
Tosi found his artistic voice through instagram under the name @giuliano_tosi, where he has been interacting with his community for four years, posting and sharing insights to his works.
Since he is posting a lot of nude paintings and intimacy scenes, he is facing Instagrams censorhip and shadowbanning.
In 2021, his controversial artwork "Frauendrucker" was hyped by the media. For this, an article and a video interview were shown in the largest Swiss daily newspaper (20min). In addition, a detailed report was broadcast on the Swiss national television SRF2 in the program G&G.
In 2023 his concept work "Schwarze Berge" was published again by the Swiss media. This was followed, by contributions on SRF1 TV and in the newspapers "Der Bund" or "Berner Zeitung".
Tosi's works have already been published and shown internationally. Among others in the Emirates, Nepal, Italy and Switzerland.
statement
In his works, Tosi shows the multifaceted nature of life and processes his experiences, feelings and contemplations of aesthetics. The depiction and celebration of the naked human body is the focus and extends throughout the entire work.
In addition to figurative representations, the artist deals with current social and political issues and processes these themes in his large-format concept works including "Frauendrucker", "Schwarze Berge" or "Indisoc2100".
Through his clear visual language, viewers can easily connect with his works, find inspiration and share emotions. About his motivation he says: "the viewer must be fascinated and touched. Innovation is my driving force. People react to my art because they feel triggered".
Tosi works primarily with acrylic paint, which fits perfectly with his very fast and intuitive way of working.
After his stay in Italy, the artist now lives in Bern again. This march the "Black Mountains" exhibition was realized. The next show is planned for the end of 2023 and will deal with the topics of intimacy and LGBTQ+.
His latest series show intimacy from a natural perspective. "it is all about celebration, tolerance, respect and aesthetics"
