Antonio Manzoni - Untitled

The 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.

Antonio Manzoni always stands out for the complexity of his highly elaborate painted surfaces. The artist has developed a remarkable technique that allows him to apply dense, textured paint to the support. In some cases, this material, which takes on a truly plastic connotation, is used for informal compositions, with a tormented, strongly expressionist line. In other instances, however, Antonio Manzoni proposes more calligraphic interventions, with less vigorous gestures. In these cases, the protagonist is a slender and fragile vegetation, always represented in an informal manner.

Antonio Manzoni is a painter who has developed his own personal style. He has successfully combined an expressionist-inspired language with a complex, textured and informal pictorial approach.
