Unknown Artist - Untitled

Landscape 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.

The work is a clear example of an Expressionist landscape. Reality is interpreted in an extremely synthetic manner, with a remarkable exercise in reduction. The surface is completely two-dimensional, with no concessions to spatial depth. The landscape is constructed through a simple layering of light washes of color. The colors themselves are not entirely true to reality, lending themselves to a more spiritual than naturalistic interpretation. The composition, built on light and sinuous painterly gestures, is so synthetic that it points towards Abstract Expressionism.

The artist behind this work has a minimalist-expressionist conception of sensory reality. The formal synthesis is so accentuated that it approaches a fully abstract expressionist language.
