{"product_id":"harry-jelinek-lindimenticabile","title":"Harry Jelineck - The Unforgettable","description":"\u003cp\u003e The human figure has always been at the center of artistic research. Since the classical age, the naturalistic rendering of human anatomy has been a primary goal of painters and sculptors throughout history. The representation of the nude is the ultimate expression of this aspiration, pervasive across all eras and stylistic trends. Indeed, in addition to the naturalistic interpretations of the Renaissance and various classicisms, which aimed for a truthful and detailed representation of the human body, the nude has also been a central figure in the new aesthetic concepts brought about by the historical avant-garde, such as Cubism, Expressionism, and Surrealism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eArtist Harry Jelinek can be considered a worthy successor to the Expressionist avant-garde. He seeks to transcend what is perceived by the senses to extract the true essence of reality and communicate it on canvas in a vibrant and dramatic manner. For this reason, nature, whether a landscape or the human figure, is interpreted in an extremely synthetic manner, with an almost brutal reduction. The surface is completely two-dimensional, with no concessions to spatial depth. The brushstrokes delineate the forms in a tormented and nervous manner. Color is used according to an emotional and spiritual interpretation, without any connection to reality. This exercise in synthesis is so advanced that it almost places Jelinek's works within an informal aesthetic. Indeed, one might even call them brutalist, given the vehemence of the painterly gesture with which the artist creates his works.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eHarry Jelineck was an artist of Czech origin, born in Vlašim in 1905 and died in Guarene d'Alba, Italy, in 1986. The son of a well-known Austrian doctor, he was forced by his father to complete a classical education and enroll at university. In 1919, during a trip to Paris, he met George Braque, Pablo Picasso, and Amedeo Modigliani, and was impressed by the Italian's painting. After experimenting with Expressionism, Cubism, and Surrealism, he formulated new theories such as Quintalism and Perceptibilism and their application in painting. He held solo exhibitions and participated in group shows and art exhibitions in Italy and major European cities, receiving prestigious prizes and awards, including the Diplomatic Press Gold Medal in 1975. the Europa Prize at the Campidoglio in Rome, the 1975 Europa International Academy Award for Art in London, and many others. His works are held in public and private collections.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Casellato Irene","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218525532546,"sku":"ICAS001","price":900.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/IMG_6901.jpg?v=1768473908","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/harry-jelinek-lindimenticabile","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
