Gilberto Dall'Orto - Nude

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, we can appreciate how the painter Gilberto Dall'Orto's style is based on a perfect expressive balance between naturalistic rendering and pictorial synthesis. Indeed, the female figure appears in all its naturalness and anatomical truth, thanks to the artist's perfect technique, which manages to depict the body with vivacity and a sense of plasticity. The figure's surface is shaded in the light, making it appear alive and vibrant. At the same time, however, the artist achieves a marked formal synthesis: starting from the white of the veil covering the woman, the pictorial layer becomes more expressionistic. The painterly, forceful strokes transfigure the subject, which now seems to be transfigured by the painter's gesture, achieving a highly lyrical and evocative representation. The figure merges,
then, perfectly in the space where even the background is composed of a highly dynamic and expressive layout.

Artist Gilberto Dall'Orto's style displays a constant experimental drive that leads to innovation in the classical genre of the nude. This experimental approach is expressed in a strong emphasis on the pictorial element, achieving an expressionist synthesis. The expressionistic element blends seamlessly with the always impeccable naturalistic rendering, resulting in a highly lyrical representation.
