Marco Grassi 出生于 1987 年，在意大利作为一名画家生活和工作。从小，马可就在他的祖父——一位来自意大利北部的小收藏家——的古老大师的画作和中国陶器的陪伴下长大。尽管他从一开始就对美术有着强烈的迷恋，但他在大学学习期间选择了追随自己的热情并把它变成了职业。
在他艺术生涯的早期阶段，马可学习了许多老大师的绘画技巧。随着时间的推移，他以新的方式修改和重新解释它们，以创造他独特的个人风格和现代风格。或许正是极致的写实与各种细微的细节，迫使观众停下脚步，将注意力集中在他的画作上。
然而，在他的每一幅画作的创作中，还有其他一些东西起着至关重要的作用。那就是“sfumato”，意大利画家在文艺复兴时期掌握的一种技术。Marco 以一种新的方式使用它，为 21 世纪更新，绘画的每个部分之间的柔和过渡，实现了非常精致和自然的色彩通道。
马可对人的身体和性格的变化特别感兴趣。这就是为什么他经常在变态的时刻刻画人。人物的身体成为寓言，各种概念的比喻表达，最重要的是，人与自然之间的关系和脆弱的平衡。那些不断的变形，人的形象演变成没有生命的物质，对自然的污染，以及人类的复原力，是他艺术研究的主要焦点。
这样一来，马可的绘画就脱离了超现实主义典型定义的界限。它们超越了简单复制摄影的想法，将他的艺术带入了无限的创作维度，同时保持了所描绘图像的极高品质。谈到女性美的概念，Marco 指出：“一个女人的美丽可以通过画家捕捉体现她本质的瞬间的能力来揭示。如果我成功地在画布上找到平衡与和谐，我认为这会让这个人物着迷。”
Born in 1987, Marco Grassi lives and works as a painter in Italy. Since early childhood, Marco grew up surrounded by the old masters’ paintings and Chinese pottery gathered through the years by his grandfather,
a small collector from Northern Italy. Despite having a strong fascination with fine arts from the very beginning of his life, he chose to follow his passion and turn it into a career during his university studies.
From an early stage in his art career, Marco studied the painting techniques of many of the old masters. Over time, he modified and reinterpreted them in new ways to create his unique personal style and contemporary finish. Maybe it is the extreme realism with a variety of small, fine details that forces the audience to stop and focus their attention on his paintings.
Nevertheless, there is something else that plays an essential role in the creation of each one of his paintings. That is 'sfumato’, a technique mastered during the Renaissance by the Italian painters. Marco employs it in a new way, updated for the 21st century, with the soft transitions between each part of the painting, achieving very delicate and natural color passages.
Marco is particularly interested in the changes within a person’s body and personality. This is why he often portrays people in a moment of metamorphosis. The bodies of the characters become allegories, figurative expressions of various concepts and above all, the relationship and fragile balance between humans and Nature. Those continuous transfigurations,
human figures evolving into unanimated matter, the contamination of Nature, as well as the resilience of human beings, are the main focus of his artistic research. In this way, Marco’s paintings slip away from the boundaries of the typical definition of hyperrealism.
They surpass the idea of a simple reproduction of photography and bring his art into a limitless creative dimension while maintaining extreme high quality of the depicted images. Speaking on the idea of female beauty, Marco notes: “A woman’s beauty may be revealed through the painter’s ability to capture a moment in time that epitomizes her essence. If I succeed in finding a balance and harmony on the canvas, I think that makes the figure enchanting.”
