Booming Contemporary Art Show - The Fair
BOOMing Contemporary Art Show redefines the concept of "emerging," delving into the etymology of the word. The fair focuses on galleries and research spaces that select artists based on emotional connections, emphasizing the sharing of common visions.
It promotes artists who emphasize relevant themes and necessary criticism of the present era, challenging inhumane rhythms and the concept of unstoppable development.

Richard Orlinski
French contemporary artist Richard Orlinski, known for vibrant pop sculptures, draws inspiration from his concept of "Born Wild."
His works, often large in size, derive inspiration from pop culture, everyday objects, and popular elements. Orlinski has exhibited in unconventional locations and collaborated with prestigious brands and celebrities such as Lancôme, Hublot, Puma, and Disney.
Inspired by Kong, the famous cinematic gorilla, Orlinski created the sculpture Wild Kong. This work embodies his concept of "Born Wild," expressing the desire to live positively and overcome fears.
The sculpture depicts Kong as a powerful yet affectionate creature, prompting reflection on the duality of human nature and encouraging the channeling of our wildness in a constructive manner. Orlinski invites us to recognize our animal side without abandoning our values and sensitivity.

Miaz Brothers
The Miaz Brothers, artistic duo composed of brothers Roberto and Renato Miaz from Milan, are recognized for their innovative portrait approach, using acrylics to create enigmatic and blurred works. Their creations stimulate visual and cognitive perception, engaging viewers in personal mnemonic associations.
They have exhibited in significant galleries and museums in Italy and abroad, with a recent show in 2024 in Milan titled "Hazy state of affairs," metaphorically reflecting the current state of society.
Green Chanel by the Miaz Brothers belongs to the "Pop Icons" series, where they pay tribute to objects symbolizing popular culture by transforming them into works of art. The blurring in their style is not only aesthetic but also invites reflection on the meaning of these objects in contemporary society.
The Chanel perfume bottle becomes a symbol of elegance, with the pink liquid associated with femininity. The contrast between refined form and vibrant color creates a suggestive and ironic image, highlighting perfume as a tool of seduction and self-expression.

Marco Lodola
Influential Italian artist Marco Lodola, a pioneer of the New Futurism, integrates elements of pop art, design, and music into his works. His pieces, characterized by the use of plastic and luminous materials such as plexiglas, neon, and LED, have a strong visual and chromatic impact. Lodola focuses on pop culture icons like Vespas, Fiat 500s, pin-ups, musicians, and famous personalities. His creations are showcased in renowned museums and galleries globally, and collaborations with fashion and music industry players underscore his versatility.
Marco Lodola created a work inspired by the famous 1945 "Times Square kiss" photo by Alfred Eisenstaedt. In the faceless luminous outlines, characteristic of Lodola's distinctive style, the artwork captures the sense of liberation and joy of the iconic kiss, conveying a vibrant atmosphere through bright and contrasting colors. This personal reinterpretation pays homage to the original historical moment while expressing the desire to live and dream, distinctive features of Lodola's art.
