This type of subject can be traced back to the artistic language of late nineteenth-century painters such as Moreau, Bocklin, and Puvis des Chavannes, who, while using a primarily figurative language, developed intellectually complex iconographies, full of symbolic and allegorical references. Marcello Vettor Cassinari's paintings often feature reproductions of simple objects, yet placed within a dreamlike context.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe elaborate compositions conceived by Marcello Vettor Cassinari, as well as his numerous paintings of the female nude, always inspire in-depth exploration of form, a central theme in this artist's work. Indeed, the exaltation of plasticity is one of the most salient characteristics of Cassinari's pictorial style. In this hermetic subject, for example, the presence of the mask with the white sheet becomes a pretext for a perfect representation of the plasticity of the two objects, albeit with some difficulty due to the complex drapery. The material, evocatively and with a strong reference to seventeenth-century art, takes shape from the dark space thanks to the revealing action of light. In enhancing the volumes, however, Vettor Cassinari adopts a truly original pictorial style that makes his work unique. The objects are rendered with absolute fidelity to the sensory element, almost in a Flemish hyperrealism, a testament to this painter's extraordinary technique. But, at the same time, this realism is tainted by the artist himself in an expressionist style that has a lived-in feel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eMarcello Vettor Cassinari was born in Milan in 1930 and began painting at a young age, enrolling at the Cimabue Academy of Art and completing his studies first at the Brera School of Artifices, then at the Castello Sforzesco School of Art and the Brera School of Nude Painting. After several years working in illustration, in the mid-1960s he began to establish himself as a painter and participated in numerous exhibitions, both in Italy and abroad, always receiving widespread recognition. A renowned portraitist, in the 1980s and 1990s he also explored sculpture and ceramics, decorating several plates.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reale Daniele","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56217815187842,"sku":"DREA001","price":5000.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/2b1941c5-94e2-4849-ac16-2dba52e13ca1-copia.jpg?v=1768468534","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/marcello-vettor-cassinari-senza-titolo-5","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
