{"product_id":"mario-di-iorio-celeste","title":"Mario Di Iorio - Celeste","description":"\u003cp\u003eA landmark work from 1975 by master Mario Di Iorio, with a certificate of authenticity and a dedication signed by the artist on the back. This impressionist acrylic on canvas is framed with glass and is in perfect condition (size with frame: 139.6 x 99.6 cm). This is a historic and valuable work, representative of the artist's early career, exhibited at his first solo exhibition in 1975 at the \"Il Torchio\" art gallery in Gorizia. The back features a personalized dedication from the artist, the artist's address, the price set in 1975, and the stamp of the Gorizia art gallery \"Il Torchio.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eSign is certainly the cornerstone of Mario Di Iorio's expressive style, although color intervenes—though not very often—to add visual \"pleasure\" to his engaging pictorial creations. In the works of this period, this forceful and necessary sign has calmed into vibrant, networked structures over white-gray, almost monochrome fields, laid out with masterful spatial mastery. These paintings burn with a cool heat, as if the powerful emotion that sustains them, tired of spiraling and tumult, has found a calmer, more self-transparent path to convey itself to the viewer. But it doesn't take long to realize that, beyond this iconic clarity, Di Iorio's work has actually become further dramatized, more radical in its questioning of existence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eMario Di Iorio was born in 1958 in Tarvisio (Udine) and immediately moved to Gorizia, where he attended first the Gorizia Art Institute and then the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice. In his early years at the art school, his painting moved within the realm of abstract expressionism. In a second phase, the artist moved towards more rigorous pictorial schemes, the so-called \"Geometries,\" and subsequently returned to a more immediate and instinctive style of painting. Mario Di Iorio's most evident qualities are revealed in his coherent imagery, sober composition, and controlled strokes and gestures. He was an assistant in anatomy at the Academy of Fine Arts in Venice and a painting assistant at the Brera Academy in Milan. Mario Di Iorio's first solo exhibition was in 1975, when he was seventeen, at the \"Il Torchio\" art gallery in Gorizia. Since then, his solo exhibitions and participation in important national and international group shows have been numerous, both in Italy and abroad, garnering numerous awards and recognitions. The artist committed suicide in Gorizia on July 9, 1999. The Brera Academy of Fine Arts pays tribute to its teacher by staging an exhibition of his drawings in the prestigious institution's library. In 2004, Emanuela Galli graduated from the Brera Academy of Consultation with a thesis entitled \"Mario Di Iorio, the Form of Feeling,\" which is available at the Isontina State Library in Gorizia. In 2009, the book \"Mario Di Iorio - Fragments of an Autobiography\" was published by Campanotto Editore, edited by Francesca Agostinelli, in the \"Le Carte Nascoste\" series. At the suggestion of Director Dr. Marco Menato, the exhibition hall of the Isontina State Library in Gorizia is named in memory of the artist.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Renzo Rossi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218085196162,"sku":"rros002","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/MARIO-DI-IORIO-RENZO-ROSSI.jpg?v=1768470998","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/mario-di-iorio-celeste","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
