Biography
Giancarlo Flati is an artist and a man of science born in Aquila, in the region of Abruzzo (central Italy). His artistic production began in 1964 and has continued ever since with growing dedication and commitment.
Since 1972 he has been doing artistic and biomedical research in several European Countries (University of L'Aquila, University of Rome "La Sapienza" Rome (Italy), University of Lund (Sweeden), Karolinska–Sjukhuset / Karolinska Institutet – Stockholm (Sweeden), University of Bergen (Norway), University of Ulm – Marienhospital – Stuttgart (Germany), Gdansk (Poland), Fords, New Jersey (US). He is actually active as a Painter and writer in L'Aquila, Rome, New Jersey (US).
His artistic research has been deeply influenced by Nord European culture. After a long figurative period (during the seventies and eighties), Flati is actually involved in developing what has been described a revolutionary ad new artistic language aimed at exploring the invisible focusing on the interaction between creative mind and invisible matter moving within spacetime geometries. It is the subtle ad deep relationship between primordial Information/matter and creative consciousness that represents the fertile ground and the substance of his artistic experience.
He has performed exhibitions in several European Countries, in Cultural Institutions, in Museums and private Art Galleries. Private and Public collections of his works exist in Italy, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Germany, Poland, Spain, Australia and US.[1]
He has been working, until 2009, in the field of Microsurgery and General Surgery. Giancarlo Flati has been docent in Scientific Methodology in the University of Rome "La Sapienza". He is the Author/Coauthor of several surgical books and scientific articles published worldwide on International Reviews in the field of microsurgery, male infertility, hepato- pancreatic, gastrointestinal and endocrine surgery.
In 2009, after a tragic earthquake struck and destroyed his hometown of L'Aquila, Flati founded the Cultural Association "Cantiere Aquilano di Cultura Creativa ai Margini della Coscienza",[2] which is now active as a "Think tank" group dedicated to creative consciousness and to the exploration of the most extreme domains of the mind-matter interactions, with a particular attention to the aesthetic implications of the holographic paradigm proposed by Itzhak Bentov, David Bohm and Karl H. Pribram.
Winner of the Prize Michetti-Museum on 2005.
Outstanding art critics, intellectuals and writers have been writing about his art during the past three decades (e.g. Giorgio Agnisola, Vito Apuleo, Giuseppe Benelli, Liliana Biondi, Luigina Bortolatto, Angelo Centonze, Sandro Dell'Orco, Zenon Grocholewski, Paolo Levi, Luciano Luisi, Dino Marasà, Roland Maszka, Katiusha Minicozzi, Renato Minore, Gioia Mori, Elio Peretti, Roberto Russo, Salvatore Russo, Alida Maria Sessa, Sandro Serradifalco, Claudio Strinati,Duccio Trombadori).
According to Claudio Strinati:
Flati is an artist endowed with great awareness. The balance he displays between the spontaneous flow of inspiration and the capacity to reflect on the work produced is a quality seldom found. While he has already been active for a good many years, there can be no doubt about the fact that his work fits in perfectly with the renewal of this new millennium. The master has in fact succeeded over the years in developing a highly personal style, deriving in part also from his specific experiences both in art and in science, to the point of bringing wholly spontaneous impulse into line with the results of intense reflection involving a convergence of psychological, metaphysical, technical and spiritual themes.
Luigina Bortolatto writes that:
Flati represents the world in its complexities, grasping the moment in which it organizes itself, shapelessly flowing and defines itself from the first sound of the big bang, bursting and expanding in the euphony of space-time. In the works of Flati there are tangled woods, metallic nodes, electronic boards, broken glass, grains of sand, stones, and nutshell sounds of Triton. Every element has the memory of the arpeggio of the forest, the lapping of the waves, the sounds of electronic machines, the inebriation of the wind meeting the clouds. A new polyphony of space, a new melody with multiple voices, a sort of ars nova, a music between art and science.
In the book "I Protagonisti delle Nuove Avanguardie", the Editor Sandro Serradifalco outlines that:
Through the works of Giancarlo Flati we spontaneously learn a new language, a revolutionary language, which is able to replace every artistic invention of the past. It is an art which has the same importance of the revolutions of the past century and without any doubt will become a model for posterity.
— Sandro Serradifalco [7]
