{"product_id":"paolo-canetti-lultima-cavalcata","title":"Paolo Canetti - The Last Ride","description":"\u003cp\u003eSocial themes in art began to gain prominence in the mid-19th century, coinciding with the spread of social questions throughout European societies. The work of painters such as Millet and Daumier, for example, favored subjects related to life in the fields, factory work, or strikes. In Italy, among the first painters to engage deeply with social themes were Pellizza da Volpedo and, in the contemporary era, Renato Guttuso. Paolo Canetti falls into this category, and his favorite subjects are popular figures or workers, depicted through his original and personal artistic language, which combines contemporaneity with an authentic and sincere description of a typical social reality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003ePaolo Canetti's artistic production fits perfectly into a pictorial movement that combines realist themes with a predominantly Cubist-Expressionist language. Indeed, while the subject matter focuses on the world of work and the working classes, the style embraces a synthetic interpretation of reality that emphasizes the exploration of volumes and forms. In a complex space, everything is simplified to enhance the subjects' plastic qualities, using an archaic and primordial language. The composition's clean lines and elongated forms within a complex space construct the scene, underscoring its expressive power, unchanging over time. Color intervenes, transcending the tangible reality and consistently acquiring symbolic and spiritual meanings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003ePaolo Canetti was born in 1940 in Milan into a family of painters, and from an early age he cultivated this talent by attending art schools and following in his father's footsteps. Initially drawn to Impressionism, he joined the \"Group of Ten\" in his early twenties, developing a passion for social issues and addressing them with a new, realistic perspective. His first solo exhibition in Milan was in 1968, and within a few years he was exhibiting in prestigious international galleries, from France to Japan to America. From the very beginning of his artistic career, he revealed a predilection for certain subjects—houses and landscapes, warm colors, and lush nature. After a long period of Cubism, he returned to his original vocation: scenes of social life.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Belluco Raniero (4000) ABBASSATA A 1500€","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218716340610,"sku":"RBEL001","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/Canetti-fronte-scaled.jpg?v=1768476050","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/paolo-canetti-lultima-cavalcata","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
