{"product_id":"mario-borella-regata","title":"Mario Borella - Regatta","description":"\u003cp\u003ePaintings depicting sailing ships or boats can be considered genre scenes, which depict an episode of everyday life that, apparently, lacks any significant element. In particular, the depiction of simple sailing ships or other vessels, outside the historical context of a naval battle, began in the 17th and 18th centuries, influenced by travel and exploration of new continents. This type of subject also fits within the broader theme of the navy, a recurring theme among artists. First, because of the lyricism implicit in views overlooking the sea or romantic images of small ports. Second, because the depiction of aquatic surfaces allows painters to give free rein to their chromatic flair, thanks to refined interplays of reflections and reverberations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eIn this work, Mario Borella, compared to his typically post-Impressionist style, pushes towards an even more expressionist formal style. Indeed, the seascape in this work appears to be the object of even more pronounced stylization and synthesis. The figures of boats are rendered with a deliberately synthetic line, as is the space of the work, which is created through rapid application of color. The artist's gestures prevail in the essentiality of the representation, with an extraordinary contemporary sensibility that places this painting within a complete expressionist aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eMario Borella was born in Ventimiglia (IM) and lives and works in Sanremo. His unique creative technique, honed through continuous and rapid evolution, reflects a profound love of color, its luminous effect, and the materiality that defines his work. In 1983, King Gustaf XVI of Sweden awarded him a special commendation for a work exhibited at the Royal Palace in Stockholm, while in 2009, one of his views of Villa Nobel was installed in the prestigious Sanremo residence of the great Swedish inventor. He has won numerous awards in Italy and abroad: the Salvador Dalí Prize in Barcelona, ​​the San Leonardo Prize, the Riviera Prize, the Biennale Città di Sanremo Prize, and the Arte Sacra Prize.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ricci Valerio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218660307330,"sku":"VRIC001","price":900.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/Mario-Borella-regata-3-scaled.jpg?v=1768475437","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/mario-borella-regata","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
