Piergiorgio Colautti - Untitled

The human figure has always been at the center of artistic research. Since the classical age, the naturalistic rendering of human anatomy has been a primary goal of painters and sculptors throughout history. The representation of the female figure is an expression of this aspiration, which spans all eras and stylistic movements. Indeed, in addition to the naturalistic interpretations of the Renaissance and various classicisms, which aimed for a truthful and detailed representation of the human body, the female figure has also been a central theme in the new aesthetic concepts brought about by the historical avant-garde movements, such as Cubism, Expressionism, and Surrealism. In this painting, the female figure, as is typical of Piergiorgio Colautti's artistic production, is interpreted according to surreal forms.

Artist Piergiorgio Colautti's research is based on reworking reality into extravagant and surreal forms. He takes realistic elements, but modifies them primarily through an extremely objective formal structure. A very linear drawing, therefore, is crucial in constructing the image, which is thus determined in an illusory and almost caricatural manner. Colautti's subversion of spatial laws in his paintings contributes to this effect. The constructed space is not entirely plausible and responds to the painter's expressive needs rather than physical laws. The distribution of color reflects the overall objective nature of the work, with a compact application that avoids any pictorial effect.

Piergiorgio Colautti was born in Rome, where he lives and works, in 1934. A painter and sculptor, he is known for his style known as Hyperfuturism, which blends elements of reality with technological images and symbols of the modern world. In addition to painting, Colautti creates murals, lithographs, and sculptures. Inspired by the works of his famous grandfather, Arturo Colautti, Piergiorgio also pursues a career in journalism. His articles on the rigors of a professional artist's life are still published by "Inciucio," an Italian version of People Magazine. Furthermore, in 1982, his poems were published in the collection "L'altra alternativa."
