The Bounty KillArt
It was 2002 when Gualtiero Jacopo Marchioretto, Rocco D’Emilio, Dionigi Biolatti and Marco Orazi, students at the Academy of Fine Arts in Turin, decided to give life to the collective The Bounty KillArt.
By mastering various techniques of painting, engraving, photography, graphics and sculpture and playing with various materials from plaster to resin, from ceramics to aluminum, the collective creates a bridge between ancient, neoclassical and Rococo art and contemporary art. Through irreverent irony and nihilism, they stigmatize stereotypes and idiosyncrasies of modern times.
They have important solo and group exhibitions, including L’Air ne fait pas la chanson, curated by Eva Menzio, in the Riva Tunnel in Monaco, Jackpot! at the Galleria Allegra Ravizza in Lugano, in 2014, Oggi il kitsch, curated by Gillo Dorfles, which was held in 2012 at the Milan Triennale, in 2016 exhibited their irreverent sculptures alongside the historic ceramics of Palazzo Madama in Turin.
