{"product_id":"domenico-cantatore-senza-titolo-8","title":"Domenico Cantatore - Untitled","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe painting can be defined as a genre scene, that is, the depiction of an episode of everyday life that, apparently, lacks any significant element. These types of domestic subjects were long considered minor and only began to spread in Western art starting in the 17th century. Only with the development of 19th-century realism did everyday subjects become considered as important as historical or religious ones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eIn this masterful work, Domenico Cantatore displays a more synthetic approach to his subject, but this reduction is always accomplished with the rationality so dear to this painter. The figures are consistently constructed using a thick line that gives order to the composition and structures it in a series of vertical, parallel lines. This grid, revealing the Cubist influence on Cantatore's artistic practice, breaks down the figures and the space, leading them to discover volume and depth. The chromatic contrast between green and white prevails.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eAfter initially training as a self-taught artist and gaining initial experience in Milan, Cantatore moved to Paris in 1932, where he met Picasso and the Fauves, updating his artistic language to the historical avant-garde. Despite this, Cantatore remained faithful to a figurative tradition, albeit interpreting it with an attitude toward expressionist synthesis. He never belonged to any artistic group. In general, after the great season of the historical avant-garde, a desire for a return to order, objectivity, and the recovery of plastic values ​​spread throughout European painting, and Cantatore embraced this desire with his monumental subjects. He passed away in Paris in 1998.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Derine Graziella","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218296353154,"sku":"GDER001","price":1300.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/IMG-20220726-WA0006.jpg?v=1768472573","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/domenico-cantatore-senza-titolo-8","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
