{"product_id":"m-gandini-senza-titolo","title":"Marcolino Gandini - Untitled","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe devastation wrought by World War II left a profound mark on Western civilization, which in the visual arts also resulted in an inability to communicate. For some artists, this challenge led to a complete rejection of any visual language, which led to the birth of Informal Art. The various Informal movements are certainly connected to American Abstract Expressionism, especially with regard to the gestural component, but they go further in their rejection of any figurative element, even geometric. Their exploration focuses instead on the materials from which their works are composed.\u003cbr\u003e\n ￼\u003cbr\u003e \nIn his versatile research and multifaceted artistic production, Marcolino Gandini has explored various expressive languages ​​within the abstract and informal realms. In this painting, the artist reaches a pinnacle of experimentation, decisively abandoning all contact with sensory reality, creating a concrete work of pure abstraction. The work is entirely resolved through the artist's gestures. Indeed, its surface is completely monochrome, set to a neutral gray tone. The paint, however, is dense and full-bodied, allowing the artist to model the painting's surface through manipulation and shaping. This creates a hermetic yet powerfully expressive system of signs, in its incommunicability. This aura of mystery is further enhanced by the subtle presence of the geometry of the circle and the line, which almost trace a path, an attempt to rationalize and orient oneself in that jungle of signs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eMarcolino Gandini is an artist born in Turin in 1937.
