{"product_id":"ignazio-navarra-senza-titolo","title":"Ignazio Navarra - Untitled","description":"\u003cp\u003ePortraiture is one of the most widespread artistic expressions, especially in painting, but also in sculpture, throughout the ages. Portraiture is, first and foremost, a description of the subject depicted, an attempt to capture their physiognomy and individual characteristics truthfully and naturally. With the progressive evolution of artistic research, the physiognomic description of the subject has also been accompanied by a psychological one. Therefore, over the centuries, portraiture has also become a means of introspective investigation of the subject, their character, and their state of mind. The processes of abstraction brought about by contemporary art have contributed to this type of investigation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eArtist Ignazio Navarra's interpretation of the portrait strikes a perfect balance between a realism that seeks to maintain contact with the concreteness of a popular reality and an expressionist synthesis of the subject. Indeed, this portrait of a simple person from a working-class background, perhaps a farmer or a fisherman, appears in all its sincere and genuine reality, like a concrete figure, with its wrinkles and the signs of aging clearly visible. At the same time, however, we can see how the artist reduces the physiognomic details to make the image more symbolic and iconic. The color scheme is highly elaborate, making the entire subject vibrant with existentialism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eIgnazio Navarra, besides being a painter, was also a historian and researcher. He positions his aesthetic between the concreteness of reality and an expressionist interpretation of his subjects. In his works, the subjects draw from a popular, candid, and genuine dimension, but the artist elevates their representation to a symbolic dimension that takes on broader meanings beyond the contingent.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Incalcaterra Giovanni","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56217813582210,"sku":"GINC007","price":1200.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/navarra-ignazio-49x58-1.jpg?v=1768468517","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/ignazio-navarra-senza-titolo","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
