Capredoni R. - Nude Woman

The human figure has always been at the center of artistic research. Since the classical age, the naturalistic rendering of human anatomy has been a primary goal of painters and sculptors throughout history. The representation of the nude is the ultimate expression of this aspiration, pervasive across all eras and stylistic trends. Indeed, in addition to the naturalistic interpretations of the Renaissance and various classicisms, which aimed for a truthful and detailed representation of the human body, the nude has also been a central theme in the new aesthetic concepts brought about by the historical avant-garde movements, such as Cubism, Expressionism, and Surrealism.

In this work, painter Renzo Capredoni's style is characterized by the development of a strongly expressionist language. The artist seeks to go beyond what is perceived by the senses to extrapolate the true essence of reality and communicate it on canvas in a lively and dramatic manner. For this reason, through the application of color, he develops a highly synthesised process that reduces the subject to dense, material layers of paint, in which the painter's emotion is also the protagonist, conveyed through his brutal gestures. All these elements together constitute the expressionistic power of Renzo Capredoni's painting. The broad brushstrokes, distributed with great force in diagonal or circular movements, construct the figure as a concentration of pure, dramatic existentialism.

Renzo Capredoni is a Milanese painter born in 1933. Throughout his career, he has focused primarily on horses and female portraits. His painting style is truly eclectic, open to a wide range of experimentation. Indeed, his works showcase stylistic diversity, ranging from classical figurative to abstract expressionism.
