Geoffrey Riccardo
Geoffrey Ricardo is a Melbourne based artist who essentially employs a figurative based narrative language. Drawing on a heritage of Surrealism and figurative expressionism the work explores personal and broader issues. Often tinged with humour and a feeling of the absurd. The images are in one way or another a comment on the human condition. On first encounter the pictures are slightly satirical, comic or absurd, underlying this there is a deeper questioning of human nature.
Geoffrey has held regular solo and group exhibitions since 1990 with works in various public and private collections in Australia and overseas.
Geoffrey is represented by Australian Galleries in Melbourne and Sydney.
Featured is ‘Circo Venezia 1’.
