MEANING OF THE WORK

The work immortalizes the two well-known Italian influencers Chiara Ferragni and Fedez while they exchange a passionate kiss without taking their hands off their smartphones: a real necessity for Ferragni who constantly gives away moments of her private life to her followers.

With this work Tvboy tells how, in that historical period, cell phones had by now transformed into extensions of one's self, and how these had become real work tools from which it was not possible to separate, even in moments that would suggest a total concentration on reality.

The reference to a very famous work is evident: the artist refers to the photo of the kiss between a nurse and a sailor in New York, taken in 1945 by Alfred Eisenstaed. A shot that became a symbol of the joy and love that were released at the end of the Second World War.

Times change, means and meanings too, but love always remains, in some way, the engine that moves everything, including the economy.

The work, welcomed with irony and sympathy by the two protagonists at the time, was then also used by Fedez himself as the image for his single, “Favorisca i emozioni”, dedicated to his then girlfriend Chiara, before asking her hand in marriage.

Limited edition of 99.


INTRODUCTION TO THE ARTIST

Salvatore Benintende was born in Palermo on July 16, 1980, but very soon his parents moved for work reasons to Novate Milanese where Tvboy grew up, and then moved to Milan to complete his studies. His debut on the urban art scene took place in 1996, when he began to create the first traditional graffiti and the first lettering experiments under the pseudonym of “Crasto” .

In 1999 he enrolled in the Faculty of Industrial Design at Bovisa Politecnico di Milano and in 2002 he attended the Faculty of Fine Arts in Bilbao for a year. After the experience in the Basque capital, the Faculty of Design in Milan hosted an exhibition, in which the character of “Tvboy” appeared for the first time.

Since 2005 he has lived in Barcelona with his wife and daughter: it is there that he opened his art studio.

Tvboy in 2021 is now an icon of Pop Art and Street Art, recognized throughout the world, so much so that many experts define him as “the Italian Banksy”
