Description of the work
Description of the work
Surrealist aesthetics emerged around the 1920s and encompassed all fields of artistic research. Specifically, in the visual arts, Surrealism sought to explore the human subconscious and translate it into artwork through a mechanical writing process based on dream analysis. Consequently, Surrealist artworks propose the representation of a dreamlike dimension, completely dissociated from reality. However, this representation often relies on a hyperrealistic formal rendering, precisely to paradoxically accentuate the illusory and ambiguous nature of the surreal. Even in the work of the Cattolica painter Maurizio Procopio, everything unfolds in a dimension that goes far beyond perceptible reality to explore parallel worlds: those of dream and symbolism. All his subjects are set in a world born entirely from the artist's creativity, through which mysterious and fascinating figures move.
In terms of style, Maurizio Procopio has developed an original and highly recognizable formal style that recurs in much of his work. While, from an aesthetic and conceptual perspective, his work can be traced to a surrealist line, his language, on the other hand, must be compared to expressionist modes. Essential to Procopio is the synthesis of his subjects, stripping them of their individual details and reducing them to pure form. They appear as elegantly elongated silhouettes, expressing strengths and energies that are entirely internal. Even the lunar landscapes in which the figures move are constructed through a subtle process of abstraction. The space is two-dimensional, constructed from undulating layers of paint that impose a sinuous rhythm on the entire composition. Chromatically, the cool, lunar colors of the landscapes always create an expressive contrast with the black of the silhouettes.
Maurizio Procopio is a painter originally from Cattolica. Much of his work features surrealist settings in which elegant subjects move with refined compositional rhythms. His aesthetic stems from a prolific encounter between surrealism and an expressionism charged with vital and ecstatic energies, inspired by Matisse.
