Modigliani made many naked artworks, an absolute transgression at the time.
In the 19th century, nude paintings were mostly used in mythology artworks, but Modigliani started to legitimize its use for representing human beauty, with a remarkable level of raw sensuality.

Meyer-Büser revealed that one of Mondrian's most famous works, "New York City 1", completed in 1942, has been hanging and displayed upside down for 75 years.
Crazy, but funny, right?

When Modigliani moved to Paris in 1906 he introduced himself as an academician artist. He had a discreet demeanor and a tidy lab.
8 years later the Gods of Art had taken over: chaos, torn canvases and destroyed frames. That’s what his laboratory looked like.

Where good art comes from? The collision of visions and insights that have been incubated in artists’ brains for a long time. Hanging out in Le Bateau-Lavoir (Paris) with the likes of Picasso has been the way by which Modigliani enhanced and shaped his style.

Since his death, Modigliani's reputation has soared. In 2023, #JohnnyDepp will be co-producing a movie about Amedeo Modigliani’s life with Al Pacino and Barry Navidi.

I'm at the @youngmodii studio today, talking about what can happen when traditional art meets the future.
You know who Amedeo Modigliani is?
For Modí, the neck was a synonym of sensuality and seduction, the body part that more than any other can discreetly sing of female beauty and eros.
He was obsessed with it: to trace those endless supple lines, he took inspiration from African primary artworks.
