Composing deep and animated surrealist landscapes, Alessandro Fabriani melds classical and iconic 20th century styles. His forward thinking watercolors, however, turn toward future and contemporary subject matters, orchestrating extraordinarily accessible scenes that house his ambitious floating collages of modern flotsam. Though his soft and lulling textures coat illustrations of frolicsome objects and structures, his calculated arenas emulate elements from Salvador Dalí and René Magritte. Fabriani´s works prominently explore the geography of the subconscious mind and confront spiritual, artistic and scientific dilemmas with whimsical aesthetics and occasionally reach into the overwhelmingly ethereal implications of post-Impressionist themes in the face of modern thought and invention. The results often blur distinctions between the real and imaginary and animate and inanimate by pulling them together to the point of collision and synthesis.

Though originally from Rome, where he studied art and architecture, Fabriani now lives in Sweden and has exhibited his works across Europe in Berlin, Stockholm, Rome, Basel, Vienna and Paris.
