Enzo Filippini - Gallo

In the history of art, a clear distinction can often be made between figurative and abstract stylistic currents. However, when an artist's goal is to represent an object that resonates with phenomenal reality but is also charged with hidden and symbolic meaning, this boundary can become blurred.

Enzo Filippini's style, in many of his works, consists of a reduction of reality to essential forms. Space becomes devoid of depth and two-dimensional. Thus, even the subjects completely lose their volume. Everything is determined by the deliberately rough black line that delineates the contours. Almost inspired by a rock carving, there is a desire to make the representation rough and material, in order to enhance the expressive power of a primordially essential image.

Enzo Filippini was an artist originally from Brescia, where he was born in 1924 and passed away in 2001. His pictorial production was highly eclectic, with references ranging from Utrillo to Mirò, but some inspiration can also be found in Roualt. He created the emblem of the Tricolore acrobatic team. He exhibited his works in numerous locations, including London, Brescia, Lignano Riviera, Milan, Turin, Gorizia, Cortina d'Ampezzo, Rovereto, New York, Treviso, Biella, and Bergamo.
