Fred Einaudi is an american artist born in 1971, in Weed Heights, Nevada, and presently lives in San Francisco. I don’t know where he studied, nor what has he achieved, I just know he is amazing.
His art has somehow post-apocalyptic elements, it is filled with contrasts and ironies and covered with a fascinating realist surrealism.
The paintings are all oil on canvas… And, as, at least so far, I suck with brushes and paints, I tend to find them even more dazzling. I must confess I’ve seen more realistic oil paintings, but that in any way diminishes Einaudi’s merit for achieving such level of mastery.
Einaudi is surely one of my most intense influences. Works like Robotomii and the Inner Beauty series are steeped with Fred Einaudi’s morbid irony, and several of them use the photographic references “collage” technique, also used by Fred, although they don’t get even close to the richness of detail of his paintings.
If someone wants to know more about this great artist… do not take a look at his site =P… There you’ll find other paintings, and an e-mail, but it’s with this interview right here that it’s possible to have a better idea of the biography and what goes on on the mind of Fred Einaudi.
