Eugenio Azzocchi - Untitled

The work is an abstract composition. "Abstract" derives from the Latin term "abstrahere," which means to extract or draw out. The process of abstraction, in fact, consists of eliminating the particular and individual aspects of an object to derive a universal concept. From Kandinsky to Mondrian, from Pollock to Mirò, many painters have pushed the process of abstraction to the limit in their works, paradoxically creating pure forms and pure colors that do not exist in nature, or translating their emotions and instincts into images.

The work displays a stylistic language very common in Eugenio Azzocchi's work. This type of composition should be classified as abstract, as we can perceive the artist's intent to transform perceptible reality, through a process of abstraction, into geometric forms. In this case, we find ourselves faced with a system of curved, sharp lines that seek their own volume in space through a plasticity hinted at by the artist. A sort of mechanomorphism, therefore, that harks back to the avant-garde Cubism and Futurism.

Eugenio Azzocchi was born in Gavignano in 1910 and passed away in Jesi in 1979. Ordained a priest, he also served as an army chaplain in Africa during World War II. In 1958, he moved permanently to the Carmelite convent in Jesi. Meanwhile, he had already attended the Art Institute and the Academy of Fine Arts. In 1959, his first exhibition took place at the Jesi civic club, followed by other exhibitions in various Italian cities. In addition to being a painter, he was also a poet and musician.
