Massimo Beni is a Luxembourgish painter known for his vibrant and thought-provoking art. Driven by passion and a desire to express the complexities of modern life, Massimo paints daily, using his work as an outlet for the frustrations and challenges he encounters or observes in society.<\/span><\/p>\n

His unique style combines cubism and figurative elements, enriched with modernist symbolism. Bold, pure colors and dynamic stripes bring a sense of cheerfulness and vibrancy to his paintings, encouraging optimism and belief in humanity\u2019s strength to build a tolerant world.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Massimo<\/p>\n

Massimo\u2019s art often features playful elements, generous forms, retro atmospheres, and symbolic objects, all infused with a touch of humor. These motifs create engaging narratives that invite viewers to explore both the visual and deeper meaning behind each piece.<\/span><\/p>\n

With a life story that contrasts sharply with the stereotypical image of an artist, Massimo\u2019s work reflects a meticulous attention to detail and the vibrant spontaneity of creative expression. His paintings offer not just visual appeal but also rich stories and social commentary, making his work a compelling experience for art lovers.<\/span><\/p>\n

As a young student working in the gallery, Zo\u00e9 has interviewed Massimo during the summer 2024\u00a0<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

Q: How long does it take to make a painting?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

It depends. The time it takes to make a painting always depend on how you start the painting. It depends on the base; if I put a dry or greasy base, if I want it to dry or if I mix it with other colors. A painting can take a month or years to make. But, for example, I can make an acrylic painting in one day. Drawings take a few minutes, especially if I work on a model, you don\u2019t want him to get a cramp. The one that took me the longest is \u201cThe Gardener\u201d. I started in 2018 and just finished it now, in 2024. I thought again and reworked it so many times. You have to know when to say stop \u2013 and I said it 3 times with this one \u2013 but you also shouldn\u2019t be afraid of re-working a painting either. I consider it finished when it is signed. Well, again, it is not always the case, for example, \u201cThe Bedbug\u201d still in progressed was signed but at the end I realised I must improve it so I worked on it even if it was signed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Q: How would you defined your style?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0It is a panache of style, everything that has been done in the 20<\/span>th<\/span> century, all remixed and out together.<\/span><\/p>\n

Q: Is there no problem for you to sell a painting and see it go forever?\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Of course it is complicated for some. But\u00a0 it means that I will paint again, have new projects and improve myself.<\/span><\/p>\n
