{"product_id":"hastianatte-senza-titolo-6","title":"Hastianatte - Untitled","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe depiction of animals in art has ancient origins, even appearing in primitive cave paintings. For religious reasons, various types of animals appear in the works of various ancient civilizations. It was especially in the Middle Ages, within the International Gothic style, that animal depictions became widespread as true life portraits, both within works of art and in notebooks of drawings and sketches. The presence of animals as subjects in art remained constant until the contemporary era. In this work, Hastianatte focuses his research on the figure of the horse. A noble animal, a symbol of beauty and harmony, the horse has repeatedly been a prominent subject in the history of art. Since the fourteenth century, its presence has always been obligatory in battle scenes or equestrian monuments, and for painters, representing it with anatomical precision and naturalistic rendering has always been a challenge.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eHastianatte's artistic language tends to minimize phenomenal reality, but this exercise in reducing sensory data helps the artist go beyond the appearance of things and capture their true essence. What remains is the spiritual and emotional concentration of the depicted figure, with which Hastianatte seeks to connect by eliminating any formal frills and leaving only an elegant trace to identify the subject. This trace consists of a sinuous line that constructs the image in a nervous and lively manner. This is complemented by color distributed in light and balanced patches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n\u003cp\u003e As can be seen from an analysis of his work, Hastianatte's production moves between abstract and figurative, in an expressionist and minimal style that aims to represent the true essence of things. His favorite subjects are nudes and equestrian figures.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Viel Tommaso","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218074546562,"sku":"tvie003","price":1250.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/cavalli_b8e38202-94ac-4653-91d1-7695c3b993e9.jpg?v=1768470843","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/hastianatte-senza-titolo-6","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
