Description of the work
Description of the work
Surrealist aesthetics emerged around the 1920s, encompassing all fields of artistic research. Specifically, in the visual arts, Surrealism sought to explore the human subconscious and translate it into artwork through a mechanical writing process based on dream analysis. Consequently, Surrealist artworks propose the representation of a dreamlike dimension, completely dissociated from reality. However, this representation often relies on a hyperrealistic formal rendering, precisely to paradoxically accentuate the illusory and ambiguous nature of the surreal dimension.
Artist Giovanni Iviglia draws inspiration from a surrealist aesthetic, faithfully drawing on the historical avant-garde and the figure of Salvador Dalí in particular. Indeed, like the Catalan master, this work by Giovanni Iviglia is the result of a mix of free associations, where cultural references (in this case, a reference to the theme of "Original Sin") are combined with abstract/symbolic elements. Formally, Iviglia also closely follows the surrealist school, paradoxically rendering his visions concrete. The objects are treated with a harsh hyperrealism that enhances their plasticity, and there is obsessive attention to detail.
Artist Giovanni Iviglia stands out for his personal, surrealist aesthetic. When contemplating his works, the viewer is immersed in a visionary and symbolic world, made up of complex iconographies inspired by cultural references.
