Mino Argento - Untitled

The painting can be defined as a genre scene, that is, the depiction of an episode of everyday life that, apparently, lacks any significant element. These types of domestic subjects were long considered minor and only began to spread in Western art starting in the 17th century. Only with the development of 19th-century realism did everyday subjects become considered as important as historical or religious ones. The artist Mario Fattori specialized in peasant-themed genre scenes, in which he depicts the world and activities of the countryside in a simultaneously lyrical and realistic manner.

Artist Mino Argento's style is primarily based on color. The entire representation of space and subject is based on a structural pictorial approach, yet one that simultaneously ensures freshness and immediacy. Argento's brushstrokes are characterized by rapid flickers that delineate forms with just a few touches. The result is a highly lyrical interpretation of landscape and genre scenes.

Mino Argento is an architect born in Rome in 1927. He was a painter
Prolific in his figurative art in Italy until 1968, he found a new form of expression, embracing abstraction and geometric forms, allied to color, in his new homeland, America. His connection to Italy, which never wavered through his presence at renowned art exhibitions, was strengthened by Argento, who led a large group of international artists working in Friuli after the 1976 earthquake in the FRIAM group. In every reconstructed Friulian town, there are important artistic works promoted by Mino Argento.
