Maria Frediani - Marina

Landscape has always been a central theme in artistic research, both as a setting, as a backdrop, and as a subject itself. The naturalistic depiction of landscape has been a major aspiration for artists of every era. Each historical period has offered its own interpretation of landscape, contributing to the evolution of its depiction: first with an exploration of space, through Brunelleschi's perspective in the early Renaissance; then with atmospheric rendering in the sixteenth century; and finally with the depiction of every single vibration of light on objects in Impressionism.

For artist Maria Frediani, depicting landscapes or still lifes means achieving, through painting, a delicate fusion between naturalistic rendering and poetry. Indeed, her views and floral compositions, in which she employs a purely figurative language, remain rooted in sensory data. Yet reality seems transfigured into a lyrical interpretation that almost transports it into a dreamlike dimension. Formally, this translates into a highly delicate pictorial style where reality is represented in a rarefied manner. This means that the capture of realistic details and particulars is lost in favor of a more expressionistic and symbolic language. Maria Frediani's refined pictorial touch, which delicately synthesizes objects, plays a key role in this process. Thus, her color palette is also distinguished by a delicate anti-naturalistic tendency, where the exaltation of yellows and violets expresses the artist's poetic sensibility and her almost dreamlike interpretation of the landscape.

As we can see from her pictorial production, the artist Maria Frediani (Livorno 1931) starts from reality to transfigure it into another dimension, between the symbolic and the metaphysical.
