{"product_id":"antonio-corpora","title":"Antonio Corpora - Untitled","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThe work draws on an Informal aesthetic language. The devastation wrought by World War II left a profound mark on Western civilization, which in the visual arts also resulted in an inability to communicate. For some artists, this challenge led to a complete rejection of any visual language, resulting in the birth of Informal Art. The various Informal movements are certainly connected to American Abstract Expressionism, especially with regard to the gestural component, but they go further in their rejection of any figurative element, even geometric. Their research focuses instead on the material from which their works are composed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThis work is part of Antonio Corpora's more informal production. In these paintings, the artist has completely lost touch with reality, at least visually. Thus, the composition is entirely based on color, which is distributed according to a refined interplay of balance and contrast within the work. A gestural and therefore instinctive component is undoubtedly present in the creation of these paintings. However, Antonio Corpora's sense of balance and harmony prevails throughout his work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eAntonio Corpora was born in Tunis in 1909 and died in Rome in 2004. He studied under Gustave Moreau in Paris and Felice Carena in Florence. In Paris, he came into contact with the Post-Impressionist, Cubist, and Fauvist schools. In 1939, he held his first solo exhibition, and began to explore the Italian abstract art of Fontana, Reggiani, and Soldato. In 1945, he settled in Rome and met Guttuso. He participated in several editions of the Venice Biennale. Corpora began with figurative art, then moved on to abstract and Post-Impressionist compositions in 1934, and finally to Art Informel in the 1970s.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Iacobelli Gianpaolo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56211448365442,"sku":"GIAC002","price":2700.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/IMG-20171219-WA0007.jpg?v=1768399988","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/antonio-corpora","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
