Unique work on paper by Carlo Massimo Franchi. It is a sketch in which, as the title says, we see the design for the making of a jacket. The purpose of the work is to bring the world of fashion closer to the world of art. In his sketch, Franchi leaves annotations written in cursive that concern the description of what the model of that jacket should have looked like. The drawing is made dynamic through the use of curved lines.
We find the artist's signature in the lower right corner.
1961 Pavia, Italy
Carlo Massimo Franchi (Pavia 1961) graduated at Brera Accademy, where he knew his Master Salvatore Fiume. His early works are strongly influenced by Fiume. The series called Mediterranean women is the best example: sensual women with soft curves, in Oriental atmospheres.
During the later period his style changes in a painting characterized by bright and flat colours. He realizes many works on commission and the series of Kaleidos, in which Cubist influences and the refined line of classical Greek art are mixed up.
He exhibits his works in many Italian and foreign cities (Milan, Turin, Palermo... San Francisco, Los ANgeles, Las Vegas...).
Now he lived and works in Novara.
