Gianni Bignami - Flowers in the Vase

Flowers as an independent subject began to appear in still lifes, a genre that emerged in the early 17th century. Subsequently, painters, especially the Impressionists, increasingly focused on the floral world, as an extraordinary opportunity to capture vibrant colors and light. Thus, flowers were depicted not only in vases, but also immersed in their natural landscape. While initially a pretext for painters to attempt a photographic reproduction of reality, with contemporary art, the subject of flowers also became a way of interpreting reality.

In his paintings, Gianni Bignami displays a highly personal and refined style. While he maintains a figurative approach, he also seeks to push it to a higher expressive height. This pushing concerns primarily the form, whereby the figures are synthesized with light glazes that render them almost evanescent. Then the color, applied in bright, luminous tones, does not fully reflect the tangible reality. Compositionally, the scene engenders a sense of anticipation and suspension in time.

Giovanni Bignami is a painter from Gorgonzola born in 1930. He possesses excellent technique and has developed a highly personal style. His language is figurative, with various forcings to ensure greater expressive force in his work.
