ABOUT THE ARTWORK
You can follow me in my social channels, visit my web site: Description: Immersed in a mountain landscape, the myth of Hesiod "The Sphinx" is revived, a monster in Greek mythology, it guarded the entrance to the city of Thebes by offering visitors a riddle that had to be answered correctly, on pain of death. The work places the Sphinx as the absolute protagonist of the scene, enigmatic and monstrously fascinating with the body of a lion and a woman, this monster with bat wings and a pronounced anatomy suggests its danger. On a rocky hill the rest of the Sphinx is disturbed by an unexpected noise that leads her to get up to understand who or what is approaching, while her feminine features and gold and precious stones ornaments distract our sight from her gaze enigmatic oozes cruelty. Her eyes are caught by something, maybe it's a passerby or it's Oedipus himself, the one who will be able to answer her riddle.

Michelangelo Valenti nasce nel 1990, è un pittore e scultore figurativo italiano, vive e lavora vicino Roma. Dopo il liceo artistico, si diploma presso l'Accademia delle Belle Arti in Roma. La passione per l'arte di Michelangelo si manifesta fin da giovane, a 10 anni frequenta la bottega dell'artista Ezio De Rubeis (Velletri, Rm). Nel corso degli anni Michelangelo ha occasione di stringere amicizie con altri artisti, Omero Bordo, Igor Mitoraj, Giorgio Dante, Marcello Bottaro. Michelangelo, pittore autodidatta, nella scultura segue gli insegnamenti dell'artista Fulvio Merolli, laboratorio M'Arte, dove conosce anche Alessia Forconi e Reinard Pfingst. La ricerca artistica di Michelangelo si ispira allo studio dei grandi maestri del passato come: PieterPaulo Rubens, Antoon Van Dyck, Jan Van Eyck, Frans Hals, Rembrant, Michelangelo Buonarroti, Leonardo Da Vinci, Michelangelo Merisi, William-Adolphe Bouguereau, John William Waterhouse, Canova, questo si riflette nelle sue opere. L'amore per l'arte anacronistica non limita Michelangelo ad apprezzare anche le opere d'arte dalla poetica che varia dalla Pop art all' astrattismo o all' installazione ed altro ancora.
