Description : Figura con bouquet

Oil painting on canvas. Signed lower right. On the back further signature and label of the Parabiago Art Gallery with the data of the work; further stamp of another gallery. Eliano Fantuzzi, born in Modena but raised and artistically trained in Verona, moved to Paris when he was still very young, fascinated by the Enlightenment trends first and then by Expressionists, and in this city he began to exhibit and build his career. After a few years in the French army, he returned to Italy in 1943, but in 1948 he was called by the Emir Ibim Saud to decorate the Saudi palace of Taif, where he remained until 1952, frescoing the reception hall. After returning to Italy for good, he exhibited in exhibitions and biennials. Influenced by his contact with Expressionism in his Parisian years, Fantuzzi placed a marked emphasis on the expression of emotions and moods in his works. His figures are therefore summary, never completely defined, rather deformed into elongated forms, the faces anonymous, and placed in solitary and melancholy settings; Instead, color dominates in his canvases in its most marked ranges, usually the cold tones of blues, greens and violets, which create sometimes violent contrasts. Fantuzzi's main themes are the solitude of the metropolis and the difficulty of communicating in interpersonal relationships. The painting is presented in a frame.

Artistic technique: Painting

La pittura è l'arte che consiste nell'applicare dei pigmenti a un supporto come la carta, la tela, la seta, la ceramica, il legno, il vetro o un muro. Essendo i pigmenti essenzialmente solidi, è necessario utilizzare un legante, che li porti a uno stadio liquido, più fluido o più denso, e un collante, che permetta l'adesione duratura al supporto. Chi dipinge è detto pittore o pittrice. Il risultato è un'immagine che, a seconda delle intenzioni dell'autore, esprime la sua percezione del mondo o una libera associazione di forme o un qualsiasi altro significato, a seconda della sua creatività, del suo gusto estetico e di quello della società di cui fa parte.
