MARIO BERRINO - GIRL IN THE FIELDS

The human figure has always been at the center of artistic research. Since the classical age, the naturalistic rendering of human anatomy has been a primary goal of painters and sculptors throughout history. The representation of the female figure is an expression of this aspiration, pervasive across all eras and stylistic trends. Indeed, in addition to the naturalistic interpretations of the Renaissance and various classicisms, which aimed for a truthful and detailed representation of the human body, the female figure has also been a central figure in the new aesthetic concepts brought about by the historical avant-garde, such as Cubism, Expressionism, and Surrealism.

Mario Berrino's pictorial production is characterized by the complete synthesis of reality in pictorial matter. In this painting, too, we can see how the subject is structured in dense, material color and how the forms are synthesized, in an essential manner, by the painter's gesture. The entire painting, then, is characterized by a dynamic and iridescent surface. For it is essentially in color that Mario Berrino finds his lifeblood, in his ability to create luminous and dynamic chromatic impastos.

Mario Berrino was a painter and an important figure from Alassio. Born in 1920, he died in 2011. Besides being an artist, he was also a tireless promoter of initiatives. It is worth remembering that, from his idea, together with the writer Ernest Hemingway, the famous Muretto d'Alassio was born in 1953. From 1976 onwards, he dedicated himself entirely to painting. His paintings are permanently exhibited in two galleries dedicated to him in Alassio and Monte Carlo.
