{"product_id":"adelio-colombo-vaso-di-fiori","title":"Adelio Colombo - Vase of Flowers","description":"\u003cp\u003eFlowers as a subject in themselves began to appear in still lifes, a genre that emerged in the early 17th century. Subsequently, painters, especially the Impressionists, increasingly focused on the floral world as an extraordinary opportunity to capture vibrant colors and light. Thus, flowers began to appear not only in vases, but also immersed in their natural landscape. While initially a pretext for painters to attempt a photographic reproduction of reality, with contemporary art, the subject of flowers also becomes a way of interpreting reality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eThis work is part of a highly interesting series, demonstrating Adelio Colombo's figurative production on traditional subjects such as still lifes and vases of flowers. The composition is highly instinctive, constructed entirely through color, which definitively transcends drawing in a pronounced synthesis of the depicted elements. This execution method could be described as post-Impressionist, as the immediate capture of sensory data is combined with a strong emotional component, arising directly from the artist's sensitivity. But the most significant aspect is that this sensitivity is expressed in a truly vigorous, almost brutal, pictorial stroke, foreshadowing an Expressionist gesturality. The artist deliberately dirties the canvas, in an intense and existential perception of reality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eAdelio Colombo was born in Daverio in 1912, where he died in 1984.
