{"product_id":"angelo-savelli-senza-titolo","title":"Angelo Savelli - Untitled","description":"\u003cp\u003eAngelo Savelli's artistic research, like the Spatialist movement, addresses issues related to the perception of artworks. The aim of movement is to definitively transcend the surface of the work for a perceptual experience that definitively engages Space. Hence, the use of electronic technical devices, used for their ability to radiate energy, or the use of gestural techniques, such as holes or cuts, to break through the surface of the work and invade it with the accidentality of reality. In Savelli's case, this research has been expressed in a series of relief works, created by superimposing layers of paper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eThis lithograph is truly exemplary of Angelo Savelli's research since the 1960s. The artist chooses to base his perceptual investigation entirely on the form of the artistic object. For this reason, he completely forgoes color, immersing the work in a white monochrome. This pure surface is the backdrop for the play of reliefs, which, almost like Fontana's cuts, incise the work and introduce concrete reality through three-dimensionality. Aesthetically, these works by Angelo Savelli are striking, with their abstract and elegant minimalism perfectly complementing the essential white.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eAngelo Savelli was born in Pizzo Calabro in 1911. He was introduced to art by his painter uncle Alfonso Barone and decided to complete his education in Rome, first at the art high school and then at the Academy of Fine Arts, where he taught from 1940. After the war, during which he served as a soldier, he joined the Art Club (Associazione Artistica Internazionale d'Arte) in 1945. In 1948, thanks to a scholarship, he moved to Paris for a year, introducing a revolution in his work that led him to distance himself from the Italian tradition. In 1946-1947, his first works appeared in which the works were painted with the appearance of white. In several crucifixions, Christ and Mary Magdalene appear painted white. This was the period in which Savelli felt the need to experience new emotions. The Roman School was now limiting him; however, Futurism and the experiments of Prampolini encouraged him to seek out new techniques. Also in 1959, he began exploring white with relief prints; he elevated white as the sole color. He developed a monochromatic art and created works of extreme rarefaction and formal purity. Angelo Savelli passed away at Castello di Boldeniga in 1995.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Colombo Massimo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218529202562,"sku":"MCOL001","price":1800.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/savelli-rotated.jpg?v=1768473932","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/angelo-savelli-senza-titolo","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
