{"product_id":"antonio-vangelli-tre-donne-in-riva","title":"Antonio Vangelli - Three Women on the Shore","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe human figure has always been at the center of artistic research. Since the classical age, the naturalistic rendering of human anatomy has been a primary goal of painters and sculptors throughout history. The representation of the female figure is an expression of this aspiration, pervasive across all eras and stylistic trends. Indeed, in addition to the naturalistic interpretations of the Renaissance and various classicisms, which aimed for a truthful and detailed representation of the human body, the female figure has also been a central figure in the new aesthetic concepts brought about by the historical avant-garde, such as Cubism, Expressionism, and Surrealism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eEven in his study of the female figure, Antonio Vangelli was able to develop his original expressionist and minimalist language. The figures are always arranged in a row, side by side, in a two-dimensional, decontextualized space. Typical of Vangelli's expressionism is the elongated, threadlike appearance his figures take on. This gives his works a distinct vertical tension. But it is above all in his linework, which varies from work to work, that Antonio Vangelli's creativity and inner vision are expressed. In this painting, for example, the three women are constructed with a very marked and sinuous line that creates broad areas ready to accommodate the artist's characteristic multi-colored palette. The brushwork is always dense and thick, as are the combinations of color tones, which are unpredictable and deliberately dissonant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eAntonio Vangelli was born in Rome in 1917 to a noble family, and passed away in 2004. He began creating his series \"The Circus\" and \"The Masks,\" and published some drawings in the magazines \"Lettere oggi\" and \"Risorgimento.\" He exhibited alongside Emilio Vedova and Giulio Turcato, and at the historic first exhibition of the Libera Associazione Arti Figurative, of which he was a member. The 1940s and 1950s marked a turning point in his art. He began painting geometric bridges and industrial landscapes. In 1999, the major solo exhibition \"Antonio Vangelli. The Celebration of Life\" was held at Villa San Carlo Borromeo. His works continue to be exhibited at the Museum of Villa San Carlo Borromeo, in the group exhibitions “The Portrait. The Artistic and Cultural Roots of Europe” (2005), “The School of Rome” (2006), “Women” (2006), “Beauty, Art, Writing. Europe, Russia, China, Japan” (2007) and “The Incarnation of Colour and the Writing of Light” (2007). His works are also exhibited at the large group exhibition “Treasures of Italy” (2007), held at the Chongqing Planning Exhibition Gallery, in Chongqing, China.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Marini Fabrizio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218153550210,"sku":"FMAR002","price":600.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/IMG-20220311-WA0001.jpg?v=1768471517","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/antonio-vangelli-tre-donne-in-riva","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
