Description of the work
Description of the work
Social themes in art began to gain prominence towards the mid-19th century, coinciding with the spread of social questions in various European societies. The work of painters such as Millet and Daumier, for example, favored subjects related to life in the fields, factory work, or strikes. In Italy, among the first painters to engage deeply with social themes were Pellizza da Volpedo and, in the contemporary era, Renato Guttuso. In Cavaldoro's particular case, this interest often focused on the Mexican working classes.
Alfredo Cavaldoro's painting style is rooted in the harshness of life and work. This harshness is perfectly translated by the artist into a formal context, expressed through a rough and raw brushstroke, which sketches out the figures in a dense, dense canvas. The colors also contribute to this poetics, adopting earthy tones.
Alfredo Cavaldoro was a painter originally from Mestre, where he was born in 1924 and died in 1984. His artistic production was characterized by a substantially expressionist style, which strongly synthesizes figures in hard and rough forms.
