Lino Fornasier - Houses in the Woods

Landscape has always been a central theme in artistic research, both as a setting, as a backdrop, and as a subject itself. The naturalistic depiction of landscape has been a major aspiration for artists of every era. Each historical period has offered its own interpretation of landscape, contributing to the evolution of its depiction: first with an exploration of space, through Brunelleschi's perspective in the early Renaissance; then with atmospheric rendering in the sixteenth century; and finally with the depiction of every single vibration of light on objects in Impressionism.

Fornasier's entire oeuvre is dedicated to a rural world, from which he seeks to highlight a spirituality of the land and rural life through a complex artistic approach grounded in a recontextualization inspired by post-Impressionism. Fornasier's technique consists of thick, dense brushstrokes that construct the image in an almost pointillist manner, leaving the viewer's eye to reconstruct the forms. In Fornasier's paintings, the linework, though coarse, manages to convey a fresh, lively, and vibrant image of the countryside, yet at the same time highly expressionistic.

As we can see from the analysis of this work, Fornasier is tied to rather traditional genres such as landscape. His style tends to be post-impressionist, with some influence from Divisionist artists.
