{"product_id":"lauri-leppanen-senza-titolo-2","title":"Lauri Leppanen - Untitled","description":"\u003cp\u003e Animal depictions in art have 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eLari Leppanen's painting style, in much of his work, is characterized by the development of a strongly expressionist language. The artist seeks to go beyond what is perceived by the senses to extrapolate the true essence of reality and communicate it on canvas in a lively and dramatic manner. For this reason, through the application of color, he develops a highly synthesised process that reduces his subjects to dense, material layers, in which the painter's emotion is also the protagonist, conveyed through his brutal gestures. All these elements together constitute the expressionistic power of Leppanen's painting. This power is also based on a specific aesthetic choice that reaffirms the dramatic tone of his works, namely, a preference for a marked monochrome of brown tones, from which the images emerge almost with difficulty, establishing a struggle with the pictorial material.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eLauri Leppänen.
