{"product_id":"celestino-bertrand-senza-titolo","title":"Celestino Bertrand - Untitled","description":"\u003cp\u003eLandscape 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eCelestino Bertand's 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 color. The hues themselves lack a complete connection to reality, lending themselves to a more spiritual than naturalistic interpretation. For Celestino Bertand, the fundamental elements of expression are color and brushstrokes, in a profoundly material and gestural interpretation. The color is distributed in dense, full-bodied layers that almost elevate the painting's surface. Gesture is crucial, capable of giving form to the object with just a few essential touches. The result is a powerfully alive and vibrant depiction, in an interpretation of painting that draws on the post-Impressionist tradition to achieve an extraordinary contemporaneity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eCelestino Bertand is a Sicilian artist whose pictorial research moves between expressionist landscape art and a tendency towards informal art.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trigilio Paolo","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218702217602,"sku":"PTRI001","price":2700.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/50x60_709c3ed3-0421-468e-9b43-dbb6032e9c0d.jpg?v=1768475800","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/celestino-bertrand-senza-titolo","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
