Alfredo Nannoni - Untitled

We are faced with a glimpse of a landscape. Landscapes have always fascinated artists and allow them to express their sensitivity to nature as well as to man-made urban centers. In this case, we are faced with a long staircase, but given the expressionistic style, the perspective is reversed, reminiscent of Escher drawings, where the difference between above and below is difficult to discern.

Throughout his career, Nannoni has developed a figurative language and poetics all his own. His narrative is strongly expressionistic and tends toward extreme synthesis, seeking to analyze the scene with rapid, intuitive brushstrokes, thus approaching abstraction. His highly synthetic style distorts landscapes, and the scenes unfold entirely in close-up, thus creating a strong two-dimensionality that almost negates perspective. All this reinforces the dynamism but also the hermeticism of the scenes. He uses his signature palette, with impastos tending toward gray and black, transcribing the landscape in monochrome.

Alfredo Nannoni was born in Tavarnelle Val di Pesa in 1945. His works are held in important collections both in Italy and abroad. He has exhibited his paintings in numerous shows. Nannoni specializes in battle scenes, which he always interprets with a highly personal style that elegantly and dynamically highlights the drama of wartime events.
