Description of the work
Description of the work
The work draws on an Informal aesthetic language. The devastation wrought by World War II left a profound mark on Western civilization, which in the visual arts also resulted in an inability to communicate. For some artists, this challenge led to a complete rejection of any visual language, resulting in the birth of Informal Art. The various Informal movements are certainly connected to American Abstract Expressionism, especially with regard to the gestural component, but they go further in their rejection of any figurative element, even geometric. Their research focuses instead on the material from which their works are composed.
Artist Giovanni Sangalli consistently conducts in-depth research into his own perception of nature, leading him to transfigure reality into abstract and almost surreal forms. First, sensory data is subjected to a remarkable expressive synthesis, transcending contingent details in a highly essential and symbolic representation. But the key distinctiveness of Giovanni Sangalli's painting lies in the fact that this synthesis is completely transfigured into an "other" reality that does not appear to belong to an earthly dimension. This result is achieved through a complex formal development that inserts the synthetic forms of the objects represented into a non-unique and multidimensional space. Distances are measured by reflective surfaces, and light radiates with metallic flashes.
Giovanni Sangalli is a painter born in Milan in 1930. His pictorial production is distinguished by his experiments with the traditional genre of landscape and beyond, which led him to transfigure nature into abstract and surreal forms.
