Giuliano Amedeo Tosi, born in Bern in 1992, has emerged as a distinctive artistic presence, cultivating his creative identity prominently through the digital realm of Instagram. Operating under the handle @giuliano_tosi, Tosi has harnessed the platform over the past four years as a dynamic conduit for engagement, sharing profound insights into his artistic process and fostering a vibrant community around his work.
Elevating the human form to a central theme, Tosi's oeuvre frequently navigates the contours of nudity and scenes of intimacy. However, this unapologetic exploration of the human experience has not been without its challenges. The artist has encountered censorship and shadowbanning on Instagram due to the explicit nature of some of his creations.
In the cultural landscape of Switzerland, Tosi's impact has been palpable. His provocative opus "Frauendrucker" became a subject of intense scrutiny and discussion within the Swiss media in 2021. The subsequent year, his conceptual masterpiece "Schwarze Berge" once again drew the attention and discourse of the Swiss media, further underlining his capacity to spark poignant dialogues.
Tosi's artistic footprint has transcended national boundaries, with his works resonating on an international scale. His pieces have graced exhibitions and publications across diverse locales including the USA, the Emirates, Nepal, Italy, and his native Switzerland.
statement
In his artistic endeavors, Tosi masterfully portrays the intricate tapestry of life while weaving in his own experiences, emotions, and contemplation of aesthetic nuances. At the heart of his oeuvre lies a profound exploration and exultation of the unclothed human form, a thematic thread interwoven throughout his comprehensive body of work.
Beyond his figurative expressions, the artist delves into the contemporary social and political currents, skillfully navigating these complex themes within his expansive and thought-provoking conceptual compositions, such as "Frauendrucker," "Schwarze Berge," and "Indisoc2100."
Tosi's visual lexicon, characterized by its lucidity, beckons viewers to seamlessly connect with his art, engendering inspiration and evoking shared sentiments. Reflecting on his creative impetus, he articulates, "The allure of my art lies in its capacity to captivate and move the beholder. It is innovation that propels me forward, and the resonant responses from individuals stem from a genuine stimulation they experience."
Employing predominantly acrylic paint, Tosi's choice of medium harmoniously aligns with his dynamic and intuitive artistic process.
His most recent series unveils intimacy through an unfiltered lens, encapsulating a narrative that reverberates with themes of celebration, tolerance, respect, and an enduring commitment to aesthetics.
