{"product_id":"glauco-tarquini-personaggi","title":"Glauco Tarquini - Characters","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe work can be defined as a genre scene, that is, the depiction of an episode of everyday life that, apparently, lacks any significant element. These types of domestic subjects were long considered minor and only began to spread in Western art starting in the 17th century. Only with the development of 19th-century realism did everyday subjects become considered as important as historical or religious ones. The Impressionists, in particular, favored subjects related to modern life in urban, bourgeois settings. In the ironic and disenchanted narrative of society, especially bourgeois and provincial, that characterizes part of Glauco Tarquini's artistic output, the genre scene cannot be excluded. In Glauco Tarquini's genre scene, decontextualization dominates, and the focus is entirely on the characters in a scathing existential analysis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eThis work is part of a series in which Glauco Tarquini departs from his classical quotations to create small, ironic and humorous scenes. The subject is treated synthetically, highlighting features that are not only physiognomic but also character-specific, in a sort of caricatural expressionism. The forms are traced with essential lines, and the space is decontextualized. The artist begins with phenomenal reality, with the physiognomy of the portrayed characters, but then breaks away from it for a deeper, existential analysis, always conducted by Glauco Tarquini with the language of irony and disenchantment. From this perspective, the use of color is also consistent: Glauco Tarquini's typical palette is composed of bright and vibrant hues, in keeping with the light-hearted nature of his irony.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eGlauco Tarquini, born in L'Aquila in 1922 and died in Rome in 2010, was a painter and illustrator active in central Italy. He was the son of Sabatino Tarquini, a painter and sculptor from Prata d'Ansidonia in Abruzzo whose works have a classical and figurative style. He was the brother of Paolo and Luigi, who worked in Rome primarily as poster artists for several film distribution companies, projects in which Glauco also participated.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Smargiassi Tiziana","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218383319426,"sku":"TSMA001","price":900.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/glauco-tarquini-1.jpg?v=1768473157","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/glauco-tarquini-personaggi","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
