Mor An Go

I have invented a technique that gives colors an extraordinary brilliance and I’m interested in finding new materials. I’m an artist who dares to look for original, provocative – yet decorative – effects. Colour comes to life and thus becomes the chief protagonist of my paintings. I understand abstract materialism as a colours and lines succession that only break if nothing more is needed. It’s the work itself that changes till it has found its true essence – its absolute harmony.

"Mor An Go is a basically spontaneous artist, who yet comes to conceptual results through a refined synthesis of minimalist observations and sign culture. It is based on ancestral expression forms, but also on a firm decorative – yet non-figurative - tradition; the latter can be especially found in Chinese and Japanese art."
(Emanuele Barletti, Museum Director Pietro Annigoni, Florence)

"A harmonic dance of lines and colors, essential, vibrant, decorative, never monotonous."
(Marina Loffredo, art historian, Artists Association of Rome)

Born in the heart of Salento, I attended the School of Art in Galatina (Lecce) and took a master degree in History of Art at the University of Rome “Sapienza”.
