{"product_id":"antonio-spagnuolo-paesaggio-di-tronchi-e-case","title":"Antonio Spagnuolo - Landscape of Logs and Houses","description":"\u003cp\u003eLandscape has always been a central theme in artistic research, both as a setting, as a backdrop, and as a subject itself. The naturalistic depiction of landscape has been a major aspiration for artists of every era. Each historical period has offered its own interpretation of landscape, contributing to the evolution of its depiction: first with an exploration of space, through Brunelleschi's perspective in the early Renaissance; then with atmospheric rendering in the sixteenth century; and finally with the depiction of every single vibration of light on objects in Impressionism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eThis painting is an excellent example of Antonio Spagnuolo's artistic language. He does not view landscape painting as a description of reality but rather as a piece of existentialist poetry. For this reason, his views focus on a combination of lines and volumes from which to derive an extremely harmonious and balanced composition. The transfiguration of reality in lyricism also involves a reduction of details to extract, with a metaphysical approach, the essence of perceived things. Thus, the small houses, the solitary tree trunks, and the surrounding countryside are rendered in a superimposition of stark, clear-cut forms. In this transposition of reality to the purity of emotion, the composition plays a fundamental role. Indeed, the pictorial material is essential in imbuing objects with profound vibrations that almost seem to corrode the surface of things. Vibrations that are luminous and atmospheric, but also, and above all, existential.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eAntonio Spagnuolo was born in Avellino, and after completing his studies at the art school, he began attending artistic ceramics workshops as a decorator. In this context, he began painting on canvas the same figures he had previously painted on terracotta objects. Stylistically, he began his career reproducing the classical paintings of the great masters, later moving on to the metaphysical-surreal style he continues to practice today. Technically, his first approach to art was characterized by the use of watercolors, which evolved into oil paints as he matured as an artist.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Antonio Grattagliano","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218076610946,"sku":"agra003","price":4600.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/IMG-20211126-WA0013.jpg?v=1768470877","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/antonio-spagnuolo-paesaggio-di-tronchi-e-case","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
