{"product_id":"carmelo-fertitta-natura-morta","title":"Carmelo Fertitta - Still Life","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe \"Still Life\" genre emerged in the early 17th century. It consisted of compositions of inanimate subjects, most often flowers or fruit. While initially it was an opportunity for painters to experiment with naturalistic or photographic reproductions of reality, with contemporary art, the \"Still Life\" also became a way of interpreting reality. Indeed, as happened, for example, in the Cubist avant-garde or in Giorgio Morandi, the in-depth exploration of objects was aimed at a conceptual representation, taken beyond the mere sensory aspect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe creation of this still life by artist Carmelo Fertitta is the result of a highly advanced process of synthesis. The objects are emptied of their plastic substance to be transfigured into a synthesis of lines and shapes. This allows the artist to develop a composition that follows a sinuous and frenetic rhythm, determined by the thick outline that traces the objects and the space. Beyond rhythm, another fundamental element of this work is the exquisite balance achieved by the arrangement of colors. The entire surface of the work is unified by the usual prevalence of warm tones, typical of Fertitta, but the artist creates a play of balances and refined dissonances in the use of individual hues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eCarmelo Fertitta was born in 1911 in Gioiosa Marea and passed away in Palermo in 1995.
