Luigi Christopher Veggetti Kanku - On the Pier

The work displays a marked expressionist vocation, that is, a tendency to emphasize the expression of emotions. Expressionist art seeks to proclaim its moods to the world and flaunt them with passion. Formally, this translates into a summary rendering of the figures, through a synthetic representation of phenomenal reality.

Christopher Veggetti Kanku has developed his own personal language, developed in each of his works, which can be described as a sort of "Crowd Expressionism." His favorite subject is a multitude of people invading the streets or open spaces in an anonymous, unidentified throng. Formally, this reflection is well expressed by a powerful synthesis, which constructs the subjects with bold touches of structural color. The figures have a fleeting, elusive quality. Kanku's refined aesthetic is complemented by a predominant tendency toward black and white, which makes his works even more captivating.

Luigi Christopher Veggetti Kanku was born in 1949, of Congolese origin, and lives and works in Brianza. He has established a successful national career, exhibiting his work at major exhibitions and fairs. He has published a series of books with Allemandi and has established collaborations with major galleries in cities such as London, Gothenburg, and Berlin.
