Virus, Alex Angi
THE IDEA
Starting from industrial discards Alex Angi creates a world of distinctive color. His installations are visual compositions of such an intense color that makes it impossible for them to be unnoticed. With these almost amoebic objects he creates a very strong discurse on the impact of industrial production on the environment in an original and creative way.
Maison Electronique
THE PLACE
In this participatory workshop the artist Alex Angi will perform a site-specific installation at the house that MONDO GALERIA opens this season in Ibiza, where along the summer 2016 will present photography workshops, fashion shows, music, installations and video-art projections, all under the motto "nature electronique" to focus through art on slow life, detached and aware of the nature while connected by electronics, the extension of our intelligence.

THE ARTIST
“I am inspired by the relationship between the natural and the artificial, trying to represent or anticipate the historical reality in which we live, using plastic material which is the subject of our contemporaneity. After the Stone Age and the Bronze Age, today we can say that we are now in The Plastic Age.”c
Born in Cannes, France in 1965. Alex Angi works as a sinlge artist as well as part of Cracking Art Collective.
He is presented by MONDO GALERIA by the first time in Spain, after many venues in Europe and United States.
His work reflects on the probable death of nature. Studies of our society, of the current problems of our planet or even of the genetic revolution. According to him the world is in danger, but art can have a considerable impact on this evolution.
Alex Angi uses recycled materials transformed into art objects. As a gold prospector in public dumpsters recovers plastic and industrial materials and then transform them into works using different techniques. Recycling and accumulation of materials offers a new artistic expression, and his creations confirm their determination to defend nature and its determination to defend the planet.
For its colorful these works approach the Pop-Art and recycling the Nouveau-Réalisme.
