{"product_id":"giuseppe-migneco-pescatori-di-sarde","title":"Giuseppe Migneco - Sardine Fishermen","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe \"Still Life\" genre emerged in the early 17th century. It consists of the depiction of compositions of inanimate subjects, most often flowers or fruit. While initially it was an opportunity for painters to experiment with a naturalistic or photographic reproduction of reality, with contemporary art the \"Still Life\" also became a way of interpreting reality. Indeed, as happened, for example, in the Cubist avant-garde or in Giorgio Morandi, the in-depth exploration of objects was aimed at a conceptual representation, taken beyond the mere sensory element. In the present work, the artist proposes the subject of a still life with fish, a composition in which, instead of fruit, marine fauna predominates, often placed on the seashore. A painter famous for executing this type of subject was, for example, Filippo De Pisis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eGiuseppe Migneco's style, in line with the artistic program developed by the \"Corrente\" group, is inspired by an expressionist language. Migneco's synthesis is achieved through a very thick line that outlines the figures and accentuates their physiognomy. Even in this bas-relief, the sardines are rendered through a simplification that is synonymous with expressiveness. Indeed, the extreme simplification of design, form, and space represents, on the part of this painter, a conscious choice to bring the representation of reality back to primary values ​​of authenticity, such as those linked to the land and the world of farming or seafaring. The colors, in line with the expressionist aesthetic adopted by Migneco, are characterized by strong contrasts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eGiuseppe Migneco, born in Messina in 1903, died in Milan in 1997. In 1937, he was among the founders of the artistic group \"Corrente,\" which brought together several artists united by the common goal of rejecting fascist conformism and opening up to European horizons. The aim was to propose an art with human, moral, and civil content. The entire group oriented itself toward a predominantly expressionist style.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Porreca Marcella","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218577338754,"sku":"MPOR010","price":700.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/migneco_dfe38547-eff7-47e5-9aa5-ae6b255704a5.jpg?v=1768474458","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/giuseppe-migneco-pescatori-di-sarde","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
