“I have done an irrevocable mark, I have established a relation”
(J. L. Borges)
Emilio Cavallini, world known fashion designer, has always cultivated
his passion for art, while pursuing his fashion career. In other words for
many years, his curiosity and interest in ne arts have nourished his
creative energy.
From the seventies, Emilio Cavallini has tirelessly built a close
relationship between art and fashion. By merging these two worlds he
has been able to create innovative and original pieces of art.
Only a few years ago, in 2010, Emilio decides to dedicate himself solely
to his art. In February 2011, at the Triennale Expo in Milan, Emilio
shows his work to the public for the first time.
After his rst exhibit, it becomes clear that Emilio Cavallini’s artistic
path follows important art movements of the second half of the
1900’s, from the Optic Kinetic to Analityc Painting to the Generative
Art. At the same time Emilio Cavallini’s art is original.
Like the Optic Kinetic artists, Emilio, uses neutral geometric shapes (squares, circles, rectangles, dots, lines, …). These shapes are organized through combinatorial principles, permutations, growth algorithms, to achieve an active image in visual connection with the viewer.
