Lucan Carpette - Still Life

Flowers as an independent subject began to appear in still lifes, a genre that emerged in the early 17th century. Subsequently, painters, especially the Impressionists, increasingly focused on the floral world, as an extraordinary opportunity to capture vibrant colors and light. Thus, flowers were depicted not only in vases, but also immersed in their natural landscape. While initially a pretext for painters to attempt a photographic reproduction of reality, with contemporary art, the subject of flowers also became a way of interpreting reality.

Even in the subject of flowers or still lifes, Lucan Carpette based his artistic language on an expressionism of color. The figures are subjected to a process of formal synthesis, through a lively application of gestural marks and a dynamic flow. The subjects thus appear extremely mobile and lively, shaken by existential vibrations. Color transcends the naturalistic to acquire spiritual meanings.

Lucan Carpette is the pseudonym of Luciano Angelini, a Roman artist born in 1928.
