Giuliano Giuman - Homage to Whistler

The work is an abstract composition. "Abstract" derives from the Latin term "Abstrahere," meaning to extract or draw out. The process of abstraction, in fact, consists of eliminating the particular and individual aspects of an object to derive a universal concept. From Kandinsky to Mondrian, from Pollock to Mirò, many painters have pushed the process of abstraction to the limit in their works, paradoxically creating pure forms and colors that do not exist in nature, or translating their emotions and instincts into images. Giuliano Giuman is currently one of the leading exponents of abstract art in Italy, and his research focuses precisely on the relationship between perception and pictorial transposition.

Giuliano Giuman began creating the "Vetrocromie" series in 1982. A music student before becoming a painter, the perception of sound is central to Giuman's work. Therefore, the composition of these works necessarily begins with listening to music and the score itself, transposing the sensations generated onto the pictorial medium. In this series of works, glass is the protagonist, generating an osmotic relationship with the surrounding space even as a support, elevating the pictorial intervention to the level of a true environmental installation. Giuliano Giuman's artistic language is founded precisely on transparency and the superimposition of layers of color and delicate forms. In his figurative work, linear geometric elements merge with more gestural and symbolic interventions, which also pave the way for an informal component.

Giuliano Giuman was born in Perugia in 1944. Since 1975, he has been experimenting with photography and photopainting. In 1981, he began working on the relationship between sound and image. He began a series of works on glass, also using it for installations in large spaces or for interior design. In 2000, Alitalia organized a solo exhibition of Giuman's work at Kennedy Airport in New York. In Milan, he created "Il giardino dei cristalli," a veranda with fountains, sculptures, and plays of light and water. "Tre" is a glass sculpture over 9 meters tall, located in a large industrial area near Padua, and for the new Science Center in Perugia, he created "Archimede," a glass window illuminated by reflected sunlight through a rotating mirror. He has held approximately two hundred solo and group exhibitions.
