"I don't believe in art as representation. My work belongs to reality and it is affected by reality." —Piero Golia From the outset of his career, Piero Golia’s principal focus has been the theatrical and the conceptual in art, specifically supreme gestures and the completion of seemingly impossible acts. The artist was born on this day, August 24, in Naples, Italy. ________ Image: Piero Golia, "The Painter," 2016/2017. Installation view at Kunsthaus Baselland, 2017 © Piero Golia.
