{"product_id":"enrico-benaglia-senza-titolo-3","title":"Enrico Benaglia - Untitled","description":"\u003cp\u003eSurrealist aesthetics emerged around the 1920s and encompassed 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.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e \nEnrico Benaglia's surrealism has highly original and recognizable characteristics. The artist has created a fantastical world that certainly resembles a dream, yet possesses more markedly magical and fairy-tale-like traits. The scenes orchestrated by Enrico Benaglia focus more on hermetic and mysterious symbolism than on alienation, and for this reason, they always present a notable complexity, both in the choice of subjects and the construction of the settings. The protagonists are almost always enchanted figures that seem to be made of paper, moving slenderly and lightly. The worlds they inhabit are impossible, governed by non-unique spatial laws, based on different perspectives and directional lines. Formally, as in the finest surrealist tradition, Benaglia also relies decisively on a figurative language, although his is not strictly hyperrealism, but rather a language reminiscent of the art of illustration, which perfectly suits the magical atmospheres of his works.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eEnrico Benaglia was born in 1938 in Rome, where he lives and works. Beginning in the 1980s, Benaglia firmly established himself on the national art scene thanks to his identification of an original and symbolic iconography, linked to the world of fairy tales and mythology. His great public and critical success is confirmed by a succession of major institutional exhibitions in Italy and abroad, starting in the 1990s. Some of his most famous pictorial cycles have been exhibited in atypical and evocative venues such as Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris and the John F. Kennedy Airport in New York, as well as in prestigious venues such as the Italian Cultural Institutes in Strasbourg, Madrid, and Vienna, and the Italian Embassy in Tallinn.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Quaresima Mario","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56217715573122,"sku":"MQUA005","price":2800.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/IMG_0044-copia-scaled.jpg?v=1768468138","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/enrico-benaglia-senza-titolo-3","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
