For portrait is CONSIDE, universally, ALL kind of representation of a person in its real features or appearance. EVERY kind of men, belonging to Any social level, sin Dai CENTURIES More remote, have seen fit, in virtue of Multiple and Personal Reasons adduced, to leave a trace of itself Themselves Through A Play That we Today, for matters of convenience, we define artistic.
Over time, portraiture and become a real Gender What is never set, and also because He paid a considerably Any type of art: from painting to sculpture to photography and does not last.
As for the portrait May be considered a form of representation Answering, fully, a mechanical practices move towards the definition of the imitative nature of Man, ESSA has continually Riposto Even the artist's sensitivity Cosi Come At his practice purely stylistic.
THESE due precipue Reasons They then allowed a portraitist Any make MORE and unique developments to be conducted also in the field of physiognomy investigation and survey introspective, Taking Surfacing, in Followed, a pure innovative production model grafted onto other matrices compositional or iconographic .
The fortune of this type of painting, and seen boundless Even As regards the production of contemporary age, the What It managed to find space in Any processing afferent AI More current and unique visual languages.
With regard to, The Show Divided / Invisi And to be considered an interesting meeting with the Gender above, but Especially with the creative dynamics fielded From Ciraci authors, De Curtis and Spataro.
The faces of Antonio Ciraci we have a source to say the least ancient and Their pictorial Definition And from Search In the back of a Passed Away And not much else waits to be rediscovered According formulas and contemporary expressionistic matrices; a mount, And Then the remarkable cultic subjects, Che has its roots In the myths of the Territory Naples.
In His paintings and exhibited a type of portraiture in which we highlight just a few non-figurative topos, the nature of which refer a tribal signs, referable, in Loro time, a graphisms a Dear One not misunderstood metropolitan culture of the eighties of the last century. In Their complexity, the works of Ciraci are inherent from the processing of a mixed media from which emerge a strong materiality of the color components.
Portraits of Salvatore De Curtis They are characterized by a poetic expressionist kind. Your Faces emerge Through brief, but intense, brushstrokes That, in turn, employ A palette inherent to the use of few colors. The yield of your paintings and, in fact, entrusted to the expression, the manifestation of the dream Size What transpires Dai represented subjects; Your faces are, InOLTRE, with a strong introspective unmatched What tends to exit freely, the right framework, with all your dismay and with the instinctive desire to celebrate a Any inner feeling, not always perceptible Even More To the eyes keen observer.
The faces painted by Sergio Spataro reveal a truth disarming: That Of A Human Nature What Goes Beyond appearances. In His Works And What It perceived the theoretical principle behind the physio-gnomic From the appearance of reality. Sergio conduct its pictorial research starting from the Practice dichotomous observation / deduction of nature, understood in whole Totality USA. It does not exempt all His work is a joyous baroque PROJECTION, tending to the Manifestation of Wonder More pure, That which does Through the unexpected surprise, whose magic Report to the faded memories of a youth already spent.
