THE DREAMS OF TANIA AND LAZLO *
2012

"Not yet thirty Tania Brassesco and Lazlo Passi Norberto have chosen a path not usual in the contemporary art scene. Remake, Staged photography are possible references, but perhaps neither is entirely appropriate to a work so meticulous and well defined as that of this young artistic couple.

The study and research are the basis of their work that is actualised in the feeling of similarity that the authors recognise between the age of the painting and the present:  time of crisis, decadence and melancholy. Thus the conceptual relationship with the original artwork slowly becomes emotional and intimate, while the remake becomes interpretation.

Beyond the technical and aesthetic result reached, the research for the two young Venetian artists expresses singular clarity of thought and poetic force. Two elements that promise a future to the artistic dreams of Tania and Lazlo."
