Marzulli - Nude

The body depicted in this work is anything but passive. It is pure strength, carnal tension, an irrepressible presence. The broken lines, the dense, incandescent colors seem to emerge from the canvas with the same power as an erupting volcano. The figure expands outward, as if the canvas were too small to contain its energy. There is no eroticism in the classical sense, but a raw, authentic, primitive nudity that speaks of a profound freedom, difficult to codify. Within the woman's body, we also note the presence of a man lying beneath her, a composition that adds a complex and intense dynamic to the scene, suggesting a relational tension charged with meaning. In this painting, there is life, instinct, and urgency.  The work unfolds through gestural, full-bodied, almost sculptural painting. The artist seems to model the material rather than paint it: thick layers of color overlap with violence and determination. The warm palette, dominated by reds, ochres, blacks, and greens, reflects an internal tension, a conflict between form and chaos. The pictorial gesture is rapid, energetic, yet controlled. Each stroke is part of an instinctive language, in which the body is at the center, free from idealization or censorship.  The signature "Marzulli 59" raises questions about the artist's identity. Although Lino Marzulli is known for his numerous nudes, the style and signature on this work do not clearly match his documented career. It is therefore possible that it is by a namesake artist, perhaps self-taught or active in alternative contexts, or perhaps it represents a lesser-known or experimental work by Lino Marzulli himself. The choice of such a radical expression, combined with a precise dating, nevertheless suggests a personal production, free from academic canons.
