Gianluca Mattia was born in Bari, Italy. Qualified in the Institute of Art with qualifications of Art’s Master and architect’s designer and interior decoration. After exploring heaps of times, he decided to promote his pin up genre in the contemporary style. And then, in 2006, he published his first “Surreal Pin up’s” trading card collection.

His illustrations are not soft but even very violent, not aesthetic but even bloody, not hardheaded but even irritative. They are not so exquisite, and may stimulus your senses. They couldn’t help you to appease your mood, while even shatter your fantasy. However, providing you view them for a minute, just a minute, you will find out the mystery hidden in them. Gianluca Mattia is using the colour to show his soul, to represent his emotions and to express a part of him. The following are some art works of him, enjoy it.
