MR. SAVETHEWALL

Mr. SaveTheWall is a multi-faceted Italian artist who is becoming really important in the art scene, using the languages of street art and communication to the latest trends of contemporary art. His works represent an interpretation of today's society in an ironic and critical way. As the chosen pseudonym, Mr. Savethewall does not work on the walls .... permanently! In order to safeguard the urban decoration, he use adhesive tape, easily removable, to put his colorful works on the walls. 

As support for his art, Mr. Savethewall uses recyclable and simple materials such as cardboard. His works have strong, direct and targeted messages. A slight irony towards contemporary society allows him to draw inspiration from personalities of culture, cinema and art history; but his works also avoid the touch on the religious and political sphere. Regardless of the chosen support, his works feature strong, direct and targeted messages. In order to make his messages even more immediate, Mr. Savethewall often accompanies the iconographic register with the verbal one.

Famous in all the world is the representation of modern man as a frog that, oppositely to the fairy tale, instead of becoming a price, stay a frog. The work is named KISS ME and it is one of his most popular.
