Throughout his life, self taught, Italian born visual artist - creative entrepreneur Alex Di Silvestro, has experimented and worked across a wide spectrum of visual arts, including cut out paper collages, ink sketched and digital illustration, fashion, photography & interior design. After being a creative co-director of Candy Anthony a London based luxury fashion brand for many years, he took a turn in his career during the 2020 pandemic, when he decided to evolve his individual minimalist fashion & portrait illustrations into a unique style of painted portraiture. The outcome has been a great success, and he's now working as a full-time professional artist, selling his art worldwide. Alex Di Silvestro Art (signed Alex DS) is available directly from his studio-gallery based in the town of L'Escala, in the Salvador Dali’ native region of the Catalan Costa Brava & also shipped Worldwide. The artist after a visit to the Dali' Museum of Figueres in 2019, was greatly inspired by the eccentric genius of the surrealism master Mr. Salvador Dali', to the point that he decided to paint a portrait tribute (then series) dedicated to him, who has now became his personal muse. In only a few years, Alex Di Silvestro's original interpretations of Salvador Dali' have become art collectibles and they keep attracting buyers and collectors worldwide. All his artworks are entirely handcrafted to the highest standards by the artist himself, from locally sourced supplies of sustainable companies, sold with registered Certificates of Authenticity. His works have been featured and recognised at international Art Shows & Galleries including The Royal College of Art (London UK), Saatchi Art (UK), Channel4TV (UK National TV Channel), Street Art City (France), Art3F (FR), Les Muses (Catalunya-ES), on Social media & at Private Events worldwide among the rest.
