Paolo Guadagno - Untitled - MBOV001

The "Still Life" genre emerged in the early 17th century. It consists of compositions of inanimate subjects, most often flowers or fruit. While initially it was an opportunity for painters to experiment with naturalistic or photographic reproductions of reality, with contemporary art, the "Still Life" also became a way of interpreting reality. Indeed, as happened, for example, in the Cubist avant-garde or in Giorgio Morandi, the in-depth exploration of objects was aimed at a conceptual representation, taken beyond the mere sensory aspect. The work in question is inspired by Caravaggio's famous "Basket of Fruit."

As we can see from an analysis of this work, Paolo Guadagno's painting style has a broad, classical and traditional scope. For this artist, the foundation of art remains the imitation of nature in all its aspects, and for this reason his language is expressed through a faithful recording of sensory data. His excellent technique allows him to faithfully reproduce objects in a solid form, inserted into a concrete space. His pictorial approach, however, also reveals some impressionistic elements, lending greater freshness and immediacy to the representation. The play of light is extraordinary, creating a warm, suffused atmosphere, characterizing the works with vivid reflections.

Artist Paolo Guadagno stands out for his highly classical and traditional pictorial production, based on a truthful representation of reality. In his painting technique, we find, in addition to fidelity to sensory data, an impressionistic freshness.
