Description: This drawing captures Gianluca Vialli, an iconic figure in Juventus’s history, portrayed in a moment of intense emotion, epitomized by his passionate “grido del goal.” His bald head and expressive face reflect his commitment to the game, symbolizing the energy he brought to the pitch as a leader and captain.
Vialli was one of the key players in a Juventus team that would return to the top of Europe, especially under the guidance of coach Marcello Lippi. Beginning in the 1994-1995 season, Vialli was physically and mentally rejuvenated, becoming the focal point of the bianconero attack. He emerged as the leader of the Turin team, particularly during the extended absence of Roberto Baggio due to injury. By the end of that season, he had led the team to their second Scudetto and his fourth Coppa Italia.
Signed in the lower right corner “Silombria ‘96,” this piece celebrates Vialli’s legacy as one of the most beloved players in Juventus history, emphasizing his vital contributions to the club’s successes.

rtist Biography: Marco Silombria
Italian Pop Art artist Marco Silombria (Savona, 1936 - Albissola, 2017) was a respected and esteemed painter, sculptor, ceramist, and advertising graphic designer, active in Turin from the late 1960s.
Silombria’s artistic journey began in the 1950s when he studied under Emilio Scanavino, one of Italy’s influential modern artists. He later collaborated with Armando Testa in Turin, creating advertising campaigns for major brands like Fiat, Facis, Superga, and Defonseca from the 1970s to the 1990s. His advertising work is recognized for its strong Pop imprint, effectively merging artistic creativity with commercial appeal.
As one of the founders of the CGSS agency, along with notable advertisers such as Silvio Saffirio, Gagliardi, and Giorgio Caponetti, Silombria signed several successful campaigns, including those for Gallo Rice and the Fiat 127, and designed posters for the Gruppo Finanziario Tessile. His work in advertising showcased his ability to blend artistry with market demands, earning him a reputation in both the art and business communities.
In the 1980s, Silombria transitioned to painting, dedicating himself to openly and decidedly homoerotic art. His works during this period reflect a blend of new Dadaism and Pop Art, often exploring themes of beauty, athleticism, and sexuality. Silombria’s admiration for the male form is evident, as he sought to reinterpret classical motifs and celebrate the aesthetics of the human body in his art.
Always an active advocate for LGBTQ+ rights, Silombria was the “creative mind” behind the first Italian homosexual association, Fuori!, which aimed to promote visibility and rights for the gay community. He was among the first to introduce male nudes in a pop-Dada context to Italy, challenging societal norms and pushing the boundaries of artistic expression.
As a ceramist, Silombria also drew inspiration from Greek mythology and classical culture, further emphasizing his admiration for the statuary male body. His multifaceted contributions to the arts and activism have left a lasting impact on Italian culture and continue to resonate with contemporary audiences.
