URBAN ART OASIS
Tony Gallo was born in 1975 in Padua, where he lives and works.
His artistic journey began as a musician playing in a band, an activity he dedicated himself to until 2008. That year, he turned toward the world of painting—a passion he had carried for years—which eventually filled the void left after the group disbanded.
His self-taught background led him to consolidate his visions and compositional experiments without following a specific pattern, establishing his personality through a language close to the world of street art. This path translated into painting using both walls and canvas as supports, always conceiving his works as a purely emotional vision.
His works are characterized by a multifaceted style where anthropomorphic characters come to life—animals that blend with humans, where nature becomes poetry.
The use of materials such as spray cans, a distinctive hallmark of the graffiti world, combined with his quick strokes and gestures in composition, places Tony Gallo among the new artists embarking on a path marked by emotional art. Here, poetry, magic, and feeling merge with the colors and harmony of a universe created by the author’s imagination.
The sensitivity of his characters, who gaze at the viewer in a calm and silent way, has become a unique symbol of a quiet and attentive generation that lives on dreams and expectations.
Over the years, several city walls have been “scratched” by Tony Gallo’s magic, and his works can be found in various locations: primarily in his native Padua, and later in Imola, Treviso, Dolo, and Bassano del Grappa. His language, translated onto canvas, has left its mark in various group and solo exhibitions across Padua, Rovigo, Vicenza, Treviso, Bassano del Grappa, and London, where his vocabulary took on an increasingly international scope, eventually reaching Holland and Switzerland.
Look at me!
“You don’t need to tell me how you feel, I can see it!” — MOVIE CLIP
Tony Gallo’s wall is a window open to a night with a full moon. You can hear the heartbeats of the two protagonists in sync with the sound of the sea just a few meters away.
Two little birds play the part of the lovers; the two subjects converse almost without speaking. There is a hidden play of hands: “I love you, but I don’t have the courage to tell you!”
The protagonists of this moonlight poem don’t need words: their sweet gestures speak directly to the eyes of those watching them.
