{"product_id":"mario-vespasiani-lorso","title":"Mario Vespasiani - The Bear","description":"\u003cp\u003e Animal depictions in art have ancient origins, even appearing in primitive cave paintings. For religious reasons, various types of animals appear in the works of various ancient civilizations. It was especially in the Middle Ages, within the International Gothic style, that animal depictions became widespread as true life portraits, both within works of art and in notebooks of drawings and sketches. The presence of animals as subjects in art remained constant until the contemporary era.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eAs we can also see in this painting, Mario Vespasiani's conception of artistic creation necessarily begins with reality, which is then transfigured through the expressive and symbolic potential of color. In this work, Vespasiani transforms an ordinary image into a work of art, and he accomplishes this entirely pictorially. The application clearly draws on a gestural style typical of American Abstract Expressionism, with the addition of highly symbolic sign-based indications, typical of this painter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eMario Vespasiani is an artist from the Marche region, born in 1978 and residing in Ripatransone. Vespasiani is not only dedicated to painting, but has also experimented with various art forms, including photography, performance, writing, and installation. To date, he has exhibited throughout Italy, in galleries, museums, and places of worship. He exhibited in 2011 at the Italian Pavilion at the Venice Biennale, curated by Vittorio Sgarbi, in the Turin venue, and here with Imago Mundi at the Fondazione Sandretto Re Rebaudengo. He recently exhibited in Venice and Chiavenna as part of the group show \"Our Place in Space,\" promoted by NASA and ESA, which will continue on a world tour in 2018.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Incicco Georgia","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218545783170,"sku":"GINC001","price":1300.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/IMG_4075-scaled.jpg?v=1768474132","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/mario-vespasiani-lorso","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
