{"product_id":"chiericallo-la-giostra","title":"Dario Chiericallo - The Carousel","description":"\u003cp\u003e Surrealist aesthetics emerged around the 1920s, encompassing all fields of artistic research. Specifically, in the visual arts, Surrealism sought to explore the human subconscious and translate it into artwork through a mechanical writing process based on dream analysis. Consequently, Surrealist artworks propose the representation of a dreamlike dimension, completely dissociated from reality. However, this representation often relies on a hyperrealistic formal rendering, precisely to paradoxically accentuate the illusory and ambiguous nature of the surreal dimension. As early as the 1960s, Dario Chiericallo's works were inspired by the artist's dreams, developing his own pictorial research, termed Psychoanalysis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eIn the works of this period, the complex surreal iconographies of Dario Chiericallo's Psychoanalysts employ a highly original technique, even on a formal level. The artist arranges paint on the canvas, allowing it to emerge from the tube in stripes or raised dots. In this way, as we can also see in the present work, the image is constructed through a sort of material divisionist language. Dario Chiericallo, in practice, creates the works of this period as if they were polychrome mosaics made of the same paint material. And it is precisely polychromy that plays a fundamental role in the unconscious implications of his Psychoanalysts, leading the artist to choose a highly distinctive palette of shades of vermilion red, emerald green, Veronese green, medium cadmium yellow, Indian yellow, and cobalt blue. Furthermore, in the works of this phase, Chiericallo maintains a marked plasticity of the subjects (compared to the syntheticism of later works) with an almost geometric definition of formal values.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eDario Chiericallo was born in Milan in 1938. By the early 1960s, he was already exhibiting in Milan's most prestigious galleries alongside painters such as Carrà, Crippa, De Chirico, De Pisis, Balla, and Fontana. In particular, the profound introspection that accompanies the suffering and cries of his subjects has made him, by unanimous recognition, one of the most important interpreters of the complex issues of psychoanalysis in painting. This is eloquently demonstrated by the high number of his collectors and admirers, and their geographical distribution. Today, Dario Chiericallo's paintings can be found in public and private collections, museums, and galleries worldwide: Milan, Rome, Venice, Florence, London, New York, Los Angeles, Prague, Paris, Boston, Frankfurt, Stockholm, Buenos Aires, Vienna, and Montreal.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Arnaldo Francesco Ciboldi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218109215106,"sku":"acib001","price":6300.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/IMG_9235.jpg?v=1768471254","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/chiericallo-la-giostra","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
