Franco Palmato - The Storm

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 constant aspiration for painters. 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 16th century; and finally with the depiction of every single vibration of light on objects in Impressionism. The pictorial production of artist Franco Palmato is distinguished by an original, elegantly abstract and minimal landscape style.

As we can see from his works, Franco Palmato is one of those painters who manage to perfectly balance phenomenal reality with a predominantly abstract language. His works, in fact, begin with the sensory element of the landscape, but transfigure it into a minimalist interpretation that leverages an exercise in pure perception. The artist's sensitivity and inner vision transform reality into a perfect composition of pure shapes and colors, reaching the very essence, freed from descriptive frills, of what the painter has before him. Thus, formally, the painting unfolds as a perfectly balanced composition of regular lines and shapes, arranged in a predominantly two-dimensional space. The surface is configured as a harmonious mosaic of chromatic fields in which even the choice of colors transcends the natural to take on an expressive value within the composition's economy.

Artist Franco Palmato has focused his research on landscape painting, conceiving an elegantly abstract form of perceived reality. His compositions are a harmonious balance of lines, shapes, and colors that also draw on the rational spirit typical of Italian painting.
