THE POP AND CONTEMPORARY STYLE THAT CAPTURES THE EYES 

Fluorescent flashes, sudden drops of color, journalistic fragments, symbols and brands of unrepeatable times. 

To then get to them: faces and absolute pop icons, capable of giving meaning to evident, clear and precise semantics. An art with a decidedly contemporary style, fluidized in an incisive awareness, only apparently disordered: it is the style of Emir, an Italian artist with supreme talent who in recent months has been filling the international scene with his enormous canvases, of undoubted and fascinating magnetism. 

With a technique that starts from simple fundamentals: the creative takes the symbolic image of a celebrity (including cinema, fashion, music and more) and gives it an explosive visual highlight, different from the usual, with bright acrylic colours. A "fluo" art, which starting from Andy Warhol's assumptions goes further, capturing attention on the details: thus, it happens that DiCaprio is a perfectly "Scorsesian" wolf of Wall Street, surrounded by paper and bone dollars and indexes of the stock market pages of the New York Times; while in other creations De Niro's gaze contrasts with the irreverence of Mickey Mouse, Madonna's eroticism seduces in a black and white torn by an orange lightning. It even happens that the Beatles cross Abbey Road covered in a Martian aura. 

Emir's style does not indulge, but attacks the point of view of the viewer 

(all to be admired on the official Instagram profile, emir artist). 

Behind the apparent chaos there is a solid harmony, regulated by never banal patchwork. 

Without forgetting the element that makes the difference: the immediate recognisability of the icons represented, memories of an era that seems lost forever, and which comes 

to life in unusually animated canvases with an unbridled visual rhythm. 

Perfect for filling environments in search of the soul of things, for moving what is only partially immovable. 

To rediscover that lifeblood that flows energetically in the artist's paintings, and that points to the heart of the observer.
