This painting was completed during the year I had attended the University of Iowa (1988-89) for Graduate Study in Painting. I had been studying and painting in the Abstract Expressionist style for a few years by this time. The year before attending Univ. of Iowa, I had lived in England for a year. While I had taken a brief holiday to see some of Holland and France, I had attended a Retrospective Show of the work of Cy Twombly at the Georges Pompidou Center for the Arts in Paris. Some of the paintings were outrageously huge, while some second parts in a diptych were small. I thought Twombly's work was both beautiful and shocking. I created a few paintings influenced by Twombly's style of painting which contained scattered marks and lines that appeared more like handwriting than painting, and a whole lot of white space. I added my own style of abstraction and included a rusted-red sandpaper collage piece embedded into the gesso at the top of the piece.

Note: This Saatchi Art focuses on Alessandro's abstract styles of art. The Saatchi Art profile "ajperriello" focuses on Alessandro's representational styles of art. Both styles are current and run in parallel. Separating the two general styles in easier to organize and for the audience to view. I began drawing, early in life. My father was a commercial artist. The "art gene" is in my bloodline. I have learned and improved over the years through practice and self-learning. I try to balance the analytic and creative. My education is diverse, with a B.A. in English and Studio Arts, and a B.S. in Computer Science. I have lived in England, Iowa, Florida, and Long Island. While in my twenties, I worked a handful of trades at miscellaneous jobs. Since my early thirties, I have been a software engineer, including over twenty years of employment between Eastman Kodak in Rochester, then HBO in NYC/Long Island. Writing code and working on my art keep me focused and busy. Currently, I live and work in my house/studio, a Charles Eastlake Gothic Revival, in Rochester, NY. I ponder the study of consciousness and quantum physics. My hobbies include: reading, writing, guitar, movies, running, resistance training, NFL Football (Buffalo Bills fan).
