{"product_id":"a-occhipinti-natura-morta","title":"Angela Occhipinti - Still Life","description":"\u003cp\u003e The \"Still Life\" genre emerged in the early 17th century. It consisted of compositions of inanimate subjects, most often flowers or fruit. While initially it was an opportunity for painters to experiment with naturalistic or photographic reproductions of reality, with contemporary art, the \"Still Life\" also became a way of interpreting reality. Indeed, as happened, for example, in the Cubist avant-garde or in Giorgio Morandi, the in-depth exploration of objects was aimed at a conceptual representation, taken beyond the mere sensory aspect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eArtist Angela Occhipinti's interpretation of still life in this painting is resolved through a highly abstract subject. There is a remarkable synthesis of sensory data that empties the objects of their volume, transforming them into pure perceptual vibrations. Thus, the artist constructs the grinder and the fruit with a broad, white line that outlines the structures in a nervous, quivering manner. Then, the dense, agitated application of color completes the work, making everything within the composition extremely dynamic and animated. The colors are very strong, and their aggressiveness almost makes them resemble a Fauvist aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eAngela Occhipinti was born in Perugia and lives and works in Milan. She studied in Florence and graduated in painting from the Academy of Fine Arts. She specialized in graphic arts and engraving techniques. In 1958, she moved to Milan. She worked with Lucio Fontana, with whom she gained complementary experience in ceramics at Martinotti's workshop and in engraving at Giorgio Upiglio's. Since 1968, she has had solo exhibitions at Milan's most important galleries, including Galleria Marconi, Galleria Seno, and Studio Grossetti. In 1974, she became Professor of Engraving Techniques at the Academy of Fine Arts in Macerata, and since 1978, she has held the Chair of Engraving Techniques at the Academy of Fine Arts in Brera (Milan). She has been invited to teach engraving techniques at numerous universities around the world. Her works are held in important private collections and modern art museums in Italy and abroad.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Delbue lorenzo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56217932792194,"sku":"LDEL001","price":2400.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/P_20210622_171701_vHDR_On_p-scaled.jpg?v=1768469680","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/a-occhipinti-natura-morta","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
