{"product_id":"alexander-kossuth-wolfgang-il-bacio","title":"Alexander Kossuth Wolfgang - The Kiss","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe human figure has always been at the center of artistic research. Since the classical age, the naturalistic rendering of human anatomy has been a primary goal of painters and sculptors throughout history. The representation of the nude is the ultimate expression of this aspiration, pervasive across all eras and stylistic trends. Indeed, in addition to the naturalistic interpretations of the Renaissance and various classicisms, which aimed for a truthful and detailed representation of the human body, the nude has also been a central theme in the new aesthetic concepts brought about by the historical avant-garde movements, such as Cubism, Expressionism, and Surrealism.\u003cbr\u003e\n \u003cbr\u003e \nIn his sculptures, Wolfgang Alexander Kossuth draws on a classical and traditional conception of artistic creation. As we can see in this work, the sculptor pursues a completely naturalistic rendering, which he achieves through his remarkable technique. The artist manages to emphasize the subject's volumes in a balanced relationship within the entire human figure. The physiognomy is highly precise, with a certain idealization. To achieve greater expressiveness, however, Kossuth, while remaining within the realm of naturalism, employs slight but noticeable deformations of the human figure. Indeed, in order to achieve an artificial elegance, the artist tends, with refined Mannerist taste, to elongate the forms in an unnatural manner. In the case of the sculpture \"The Kiss,\" this is particularly evident and is wonderfully functional to the sculpture's compositional idea. Indeed, the elongation of the limbs and the tapering of the subject's body effectively emphasize that moment of suspension, of precarious and almost elusive balance, expressed by the subject's pose.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eWolfgang Alexander Kossuth is a German artist born in Prfonten in 1947. An eclectic personality, he has dedicated his entire life to art, not only through sculpture, but also through music, literature, and dance. The human figure is always at the center of his research, in a fundamentally natural and harmonious interpretation that draws on classical art.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Fioravante Laura","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56215786979714,"sku":"LFIO001","price":1500.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/1600865974418-copia-scaled.jpg?v=1768429133","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/alexander-kossuth-wolfgang-il-bacio","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
