Carlo Zinelli: a leading figure in art brut

Carlo ‘s creations are distinguished by their unique figurative style. They combine human and animal silhouettes adorned with holes or stars. Onomatopoeia and the repetition of shapes and characters. Although his paintings appear simple at first glance, they exude a subtle complexity that invites deeper exploration.

To fully grasp his artistic universe and singular style, it is essential to detail the figurative elements that characterize him. A close look at the color palette, the diversity of motifs and their arrangement reveals the charm and mystery of Carlo’s work. This figurehead of Art Brut, who has now spread far beyond its borders, has achieved international recognition!
