Eleonora Barbareschi Email & Phone Number

Together since 2005, AMeBE is an Italian duo based in Milan, composed by Alessandra Mantovani and Eleonora Barbareschi. AMeBE’s ironic and conceptual works are informed by their unique Fine Arts and Design Technology backgrounds, integrating cutting edge technologies with refined handcraft skills. The duo’s “forte” lies within their eclectic approach, which gives AMeBE the chance to create with a blend of artistic craftsmanship, resulting in a continuous aesthetic inventiveness characterized by an exclusive POP signature.Their name, in addition to being the acronym of the founders initials (A+M & B+E), is inspired by the ‘amoeba’, the fascinating organism characterized by its continuous evolutions. The term Ameba, or rather Amoeba, is derived from Ancient Greek and means ‘change, transformation’.Their work’s attitude and profoundly ironic approach actually recalls their nature. Indeed, the two artists are anything but amorphous, rather their work assumes the versatility of an amoeba: dynamically mutable and perpetually transforming.AMeBE define themselves as complementary and indispensable. As the bomb and the fuse, they give their best together, stimulated and fed by an endless intellectual tension that sparks from the antipodes of their individual being. Their creativity straddles and balances between folly and rationality, rigor and disorder, intellect and heart, sacred and profane making their “marriage” fun and inexhaustible, constantly giving birth to unique creations. While bringing together innovative production techniques and high quality materials, AMeBE’s work feeds on Italy’s heritage, diversity and complexity, but it’s their positive and ironic outlook on life that defines their creative work while questioning the status quo.
