Gennaro Corbi

Gennaro Corbi was born in Naples in 1943, where he continues to live and work. His art draws inspiration from mystery, memory, and the depths of the human soul. Some of his works delve into the darker aspects of our emotions, yet they always provoke deep sensations and reflection. To fully appreciate Corbi’s work, one must embrace its esoteric nature and allow it to speak on an instinctive level, rather than attempt to rationalize or explain it.
Corbi’s art is rich with unknown and enigmatic figures—ranging from staircases to landscapes and even spirits. His inspiration stems from a wide range of sources, including the literature of Franz Kafka and visual motifs found in the works of renowned artists like Marc Chagall and Gustav Klimt.
A master of giving form and freedom to humanity’s deepest thoughts and demons, Corbi channels memories of his past and significant events from his life to create works that explore the complexities of the human experience. Through his art, he excavates the darkest corners of the mind, evoking emotions and themes that resonate on a profound level. His paintings reflect an inner journey and inspire others to confront their own struggles and seek meaning amid the chaos of life.
