{"product_id":"gianni-visentin-senza-titolo","title":"Gianni Visentin - Untitled","description":"\u003cp\u003ePortraiture is one of the most widespread artistic expressions, especially in painting, but also in sculpture, throughout the ages. Portraiture is, first and foremost, a description of the subject depicted, an attempt to capture their physiognomy and individual characteristics truthfully and naturally. With the progressive evolution of artistic research, the physiognomic description of the subject has also been accompanied by a psychological one. Therefore, over the centuries, portraiture has also become a means of introspective investigation of the subject, their character, and their state of mind. The processes of abstraction brought about by contemporary art have contributed to this type of investigation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003e We can fully appreciate the sculptural quality of artist Gianni Visentin in every work he produces. His extraordinary technique allows him to consistently achieve a naturalistic rendering.\u003cbr\u003e \nTotal. The subject is always meticulously crafted, with meticulous attention to detail. However, it's clear that Visentin consistently pursues a more expressionist stylistic style, through a striking contrast in his different approaches to the material. While the more physiognomic aspects of the subjects, such as faces and hands, are treated with the naturalistic rendering that distinguishes the sculptor, the entire mass of the group is left almost raw. The complex of clothing and hair is treated with distinctly textured connotations, making the surface extremely vibrant and alive. Thus, the more realistic parts, with their perfectly smooth surfaces, almost seem to emerge from the roughly sketched mass, in a struggle for form over matter that clearly references the work of Michelangelo and its contemporary reinterpretations by masters such as Rodin and Medardo Rosso.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eGianni Visentin was a Venetian sculptor born in Tra Vettore di Rosà in 1938 and who passed away in 2010. A stay in Paris between the mid-1960s and the late 1970s was crucial to his artistic development, allowing him to come into contact with avant-garde art circles and movements. In 1997, he founded the Arte Positiva movement, which found its home in his studio-museum in Carpanè, where many of the artist's works are collected. Some of Visentin's works have been donated to illustrious figures such as John Paul II, Ronald Reagan, George Bush, and Mikhail Gorbachev.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Victor Stefan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218044072322,"sku":"svic001","price":400.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/oro_SC.jpg?v=1768470519","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/gianni-visentin-senza-titolo","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
