ABOUT
GUMM (born 1969) is an anonymous Italian artist, best known for his trademark "crushed" technique.Self-taught photographer he celebrates mass-produced consumer products related to entertainment and references the Pop art roots of these works. His interest has focused on vintage comics and magazines of the most enduring and recognizable characters of the twentieth century, keeping homesickness and feelings to them connecte. Combining mega-realistic photography techniques, he represents iconic symbols revisited in a contemporary key through the use of new colors and shapes. His sculptural work focuses on expressing on canvas the maximum definition and depth that for him is the surface, the compressed and crushed matter folded by the artist's hand gives the work abstract forms that suggest movement and a sense of transformation that goes beyond the fragility of the paper objects that alludes to the passage of time.

GUMM, a contemporary Italian artist and leading figure in the Neo-Pop movement, has conquered the art scene with his joyful and vibrant giant crushed cans, inspired as much by American pop culture as by the artistic environment of Venice and hyper-realistic sculptures. His artworks, "Superflat Pop-Cans", are an artistic trend that explores reality and fiction through various media to poke fun at consumer culture and the excesses of modern society.
The crushed can becomes the symbol of man, of fragility and authenticity, in contrast to the images and iconic elements of the labels that embody global consumerism. He invites us to reflect on how the object of desire, reduced to an ephemeral commodity, and social media abuse have "emptied and crushed" humans and relationships turning us into foolish "landfill objects", losing our identity, authenticity and value.
