Federico Solmi (born April 1973 in Bologna, Italy) is a Brooklyn-based, Bologna-born visual artist living in New York. In 2009 Solmi was awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship in the category "Video & Audio". Solmi utilizes images culled from the video game industry, internet and pop culture with a nod to history that results tongue-in-cheek collages that result in sometimes-grotesque caricatures of the modern political society. His unique process is characterized by a literal overlapping of painting and video which consists of several stages of hand-painted textures that are scanned into a 3-D video gaming program (Cry Engine) and then wrapped around 3-D models and backgrounds to create a parodic world influenced just as much by Science Fiction as it is modern tabloids and ancient history. Most of his video works are housed in handpainted wood and plexiglass frames or embedded amidst a painting in which certain areas are cut away to more directly integrate the different media. Such is why Solmi describes the bulk of his work as "video-paintings". == Work == |"His Excellency, The Chinese Dictator," video-painting, 2014 |"Dick Richman", video-painting, 2014 |"The Next President", video-painting, 2014 |"The Last President", video-painting, 2014 |Projection of "Chinese Democracy", 2013 |Postmasters Gallery Show, 2013 |Fifteen-Video Installation, 2010 |Detail of Video Installation, 2010 File:The Evil Empire Video Box low res.jpg|Box Edition of the video, "The Evil Empire", 2008 File:Projection The Evil Empire.
