{"product_id":"mario-puopolo-senza-titolo-6","title":"Mario Puopolo - Untitled","description":"\u003cp\u003ePortraiture is one of the most widespread artistic expressions, especially in painting, but also in sculpture, throughout the ages. Portraiture is, first and foremost, a description of the subject depicted, an attempt to capture their physiognomy and individual characteristics truthfully and naturally. With the progressive evolution of artistic research, the physiognomic description of the subject has also been accompanied by a psychological one. Therefore, over the centuries, portraiture has also become a means of introspective investigation of the subject, their character, and their state of mind. The processes of abstraction brought about by contemporary art have contributed to this type of investigation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eMario Puopolo's painting style is grounded in remarkable technique and exquisite sensitivity. His figuration is concrete, offering the viewer a clear representation of the subject. This is evident in this peasant woman, whose strong characterization reflects the subject's straightforward, down-to-earth nature. This expressive concreteness is expressed in the woman's voluminous body and, above all, in her generalized yet intense facial features. Despite this concreteness, Mario Puopolo manages to transfigure everything through a lyrical sense based on the application of color. Puopolo, in fact, uses light, almost transparent glazes, which characterize the scene with delicate nuances, alternating with bold strokes that emphasize the subjects' volumes. His palette is generally distinguished by a tendency toward brown tones.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eMario Puopolo was a Roman painter. His teachers were Mario Barberis and Luigi Polverini. After the war, he joined the Gruppo Romano, with which he participated in numerous group and solo exhibitions. He received various awards, including the Michetti Prize, the Vasto Prize, and the Garda Prize.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Battelocchi Anna Maria","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56217852936578,"sku":"ABAT001","price":2000.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/c8dcdf87-8f70-4a42-922e-c27e4e45c2b6-copia.jpg?v=1768468847","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/mario-puopolo-senza-titolo-6","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
