Paolo da San Lorenzo - Aquarium

In the history of art, a clear distinction can often be made between figurative and abstract stylistic movements. However, when an artist's goal is to represent an object that resonates with phenomenal reality but is also charged with hidden and symbolic meaning, this boundary can become blurred. Symbolism and Expressionism are emblematic stylistic movements in their conceptual interpretation of reality, with an iconic rendering of images and a symbolic interpretation in the use of color.

In this work, Paolo da San Lorenzo, unlike most of his work, restrains the process of geometric and mechanomorphic abstraction, lingering on a more figurative language. However, the compositional style consistently reflects the artist's reflections on Cubism and the art of Paul Klee. The entire space is articulated according to a decomposition constructed from multiple viewpoints and diverse directional directions. The characteristic sense of playfulness and the fairytale-like, typical of Paolo da San Lorenzo's art, remains unchanged.

Paolo da San Lorenzo was born in San Lorenzo in Campo in 1935. His artistic training took place primarily in Paris, where he was introduced to post-Cubism. He began exhibiting his works in a series of shows not only in Italy but also throughout Europe. In 1990, his work was included in the Mondadori catalogue. He participated in numerous international art fairs from 1999 to 2014, including Miart Milan, Arte Fiera Bologna, Arte Verona, the Australian Contemporary Art Fair Melbourne, St'Art Stasbourg, and KunstRai Amsterdam.
