Description of the work
Description of the work
The iconography of motherhood is closely linked to the subject of the Madonna and Child. It is probably one of the most popular iconographies in the history of both Western and Eastern art. The Madonna and Child appears since the dawn of medieval painting and remained a constant subject as long as religious themes dominated artistic production (that is, until the 19th century, when themes inspired by everyday life began to be introduced). It is quite common for contemporary artists to treat the iconography of motherhood without directly linking it to the Christian religion.
Maurilio Colombini's style has a strong expressionist tendency, achieved through a vigorous use of color. In his compositions, in fact, the application of paint is fundamental, rather than the drawing, in the construction of subjects and space. In this regard, everything is uniform between space and subject, which, thanks to Maurilio Colombini's technique, achieve complete fusion and interaction. Thus, subject and space reciprocally intertwine in a harmonious blend of colors. Within this balance, however, Colombini synthesizes the objects with a few brushstrokes, sketching their forms and volumes in a concise yet powerfully expressive manner.
Maurilio Colombini was born in Piombino in 1933. He is self-taught. Although he began drawing at an early age, he never attended school. He worked in a wide variety of jobs (shop boy, sailor, carpenter), but always found time to pursue his passion: painting. Maurilio Colombini's artistic output is marked by an experimental approach that leads him to use all types of paint (oil, tempera, earth, tar, pencils, body paint) and supports (paper, car hoods, cardboard, doors, chairs, walls) in his works.
