Banconote and his "counter value" art

Biography  |  Banconote and his "counter value" art (en français)  |  Major Exibitions  |  Artwork

Antonio Natale uses out-of-circulation banknotes from all around the world as the physical support for his work. Pondering over the use of paper money as a vehicle of written and illustrated messages, which are destined to sublime and anonymous exchanges and meetings, he decided to make up his own original communicative, expressive and artistic dossier:

The art regenerates, renovates, restores and strengthens the value and individual functions of the banknotes (and works of art), which stand as vehicles of communication and instruments of relationship between men, heritage, needs and dreams. Above all, the out-of-circulation banknotes, which for those who see and listen are deposits of history, relationships, sensations and projects, are brought to life and tell their own story through the imagination.
