Anselmo Pecci - Still Life

The "Still Life" genre emerged in the early 17th century. It consisted of compositions of inanimate subjects, most often flowers or fruit. While initially it was an opportunity for painters to experiment with naturalistic or photographic reproductions of reality, with contemporary art, the "Still Life" also became a way of interpreting reality. Indeed, as happened, for example, in the Cubist avant-garde or in Giorgio Morandi, the in-depth exploration of objects was aimed at a conceptual representation, taken beyond the mere sensory aspect.

Anselmo Pecci engages in a profound process of reflection on objects in order to capture their most vivid image. In this process, the painter is aided by sculptural technique, which smooths the composition, leading the artist to implement a process of reducing objects until their true essence, their pure form, remains. A fundamental element in Anselmo Pecci's still lifes is the formal perfection and balanced composition, which hark back to the great tradition of Italian painting.

Anselmo Pecci is a painter from Viterbo whose language draws on an expressionist synthesis inspired by popular subjects or a rationalism that looks to the past of Italian painting.
