Cassanese - Still Life

The "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.

The painter Cassanese's pictorial language is inspired by a lively naturalism. He possesses a remarkable technique that allows him to effortlessly reproduce objects, delineate them sculpturally, and seek spatial depth. Cassanese is a painter with a very classical bent, but his brushstrokes possess a certain impressionistic verve that gives his works immediacy and freshness. The decontextualized spaces are always illuminated by a clear light that allows the artist to create a suggestive lighting design. The light, in fact, cuts through the objects, casting their shadows on the wall in an almost metaphysical dimension of suspension and silence.

As we can see from an analysis of this work, the Cassanese artist stands out for his consummate naturalism, expressed in a perfect representation of objects from life. This painter interprets the still life genre with a decontextualization that imbues his works with a certain metaphysical atmosphere.
