Description of the work
Description of the work
The subject we have the pleasure of observing represents a bucolic scene within a wintry setting. It's striking that the style underlying the scene is based on the Naïve art genre, an artistic movement that tends to simplify forms.
The naive artist is by definition self-taught, someone who hasn't attended an art school but has found inspiration within themselves. Stylistically, this translates into figurative painting that offers a simplified interpretation of reality, with childlike and unwittingly primitivist overtones. However, even the naive artist, in his or her spontaneity, possesses a self-awareness that leads him or her to develop a very specific aesthetic language, distinguishing it from amateurism. The naive artist's simplification of reality corresponds, in fact, to a complex composition. When space is emptied of depth and the subject of volume, expressive force is provided by the complicated system of lines that construct the composition. This system creates a complex rhythm that characterizes the entire drawing. Color also plays its part, adopting hues that transcend the sensory to acquire a symbolic connotation.
Our research on the artist is not yet complete; at the moment we know nothing about the painter's artistic life, but we can place the artist within the Naive painting movement of the 20th and 21st centuries.
