Enrico Dicò

Overview

Enrico Dicò is an artist who enters the world of contemporary art by exploring and reworking the numerous languages ​​of popular culture. The techniques of pop-art and informal art blend in his creations to give life to explosive and energy-rich works, resulting in a new and personal style focused on the combustion of methacrylate. The expressive power given by the mixture of different elements is what characterises the artist's works: plastic becomes the means through which he gives free rein to his creativity and imagination. Plastic, this material so loved by the artist Alberto Burri and from which Dicò was inspired, is a substance with a double nature: material that changes easily, but which retains the character of memory and remembrance. It is matter that is consumed, but on which our sensations and emotions remain impressed. In Dicò's works there is also a lot of autobiography, because the pain experienced following a family separation proved to be so intense that he felt the need to reinvent a new language to get back into the world.
