Giovanni Sangalli - Untitled

Landscape has always been a central theme in artistic research, both as a setting, as a backdrop, and as a subject itself. The naturalistic depiction of landscape has been a major aspiration for artists of every era. Each historical period has offered its own interpretation of landscape, contributing to the evolution of its depiction: first with an exploration of space, through Brunelleschi's perspective in the early Renaissance; then with atmospheric rendering in the sixteenth century; and finally with the depiction of every single vibration of light on objects in Impressionism. The landscape as interpreted by the artist Giovanni Sangalli always takes on an experimental form of expression somewhere between surrealism and abstraction.

Artist Giovanni Sangalli consistently conducts in-depth research into his own perception of nature, leading him to transfigure landscapes into abstract, almost surreal forms. First, the sensory element 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 appears far removed from the earthly dimension. This result is achieved through a complex formal development that places the synthetic forms of the depicted objects in a non-unique, 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.
