Antonio Sannino - Untitled

Surrealist aesthetics emerged around the 1920s, encompassing all fields of artistic research. Specifically, in the visual arts, Surrealism sought to explore the human subconscious and translate it into artwork through a mechanical writing process based on dream analysis. Consequently, Surrealist artworks propose the representation of a dreamlike dimension, completely dissociated from reality. However, this representation often relies on a hyperrealistic formal rendering, precisely to paradoxically accentuate the illusory and ambiguous nature of the surreal dimension.

The character of this work is distinctly surrealist, not only in its iconography but also in its form. The artist's language, in fact, harks back to traditional figurative art, typical of painters like Dalí and Magritte, but does so with a personal touch. Sannino's interpretation, in fact, reveals a certain geometric regularity of Cubist inspiration in the interweaving of lines that form the composition and in the complexity of the space. The color palette is composed of bright blue and violet tones. The complexity of Sannino's work thus leads to a hermetic nature to his surrealism, where even the figurative elements are difficult to interpret. Everything on the surface of the painting, both subject and space, seems to implode in a multiplicity of visual stimuli and viewpoints, which also engages the dynamic application of the color mixture.

Artist Antonio Sannino stands out for his original and coherent surrealist research. In his aesthetic, figuration is completely recontextualized within a complex composition and pictorial layering.
