Born 1961 in Padova. Works as a designer and comic-strip artist in Milan.

Massimo Giacon is a first generation multimedia artist: From the early eighties on he expresses his creativity through various media, from ›Electro Dada‹ of the now-defunct band ›Spirocheta Pergoli‹, to ›Bizarre Rock‹ by the ever-riotous ›Nipoti del Faraone‹ (The Nephews of the Pharao). From underground comics like ›Alter‹ and ›Dolce Vita‹, to glossies like ›Elle‹ and ›Vanity‹. The multimedia artist uses all channels to communicate his art: Swatch Street Art Painting (1984); since 1985 laminate designs for Sottsass Associati; Multivision Audiovisual Aid for Olivetti (1987); the design of TV-guides for Italian television (1988); several Swatch watches (1991/92) and Philips Fantasy World (1993). All this in addition to his exhibitions at galeries and fairs and of course his comic strips, not to mention his showroom designs. He's currently working with Alessi, Artemide and Olivetti. And he paints in the antechambre of heaven – not the Vatican, but frescoes on the ceilings of Milan Airport. He has created his Milk-Design with passion. As you can see.
