Eugenio Poppi - Landscape

Landscape has always been a central theme in artistic research, both as a setting, as a backdrop, and as a subject itself. The naturalistic depiction of landscape has been a major aspiration for artists of every era. Each historical period has offered its own interpretation of landscape, contributing to the evolution of its depiction: first with an exploration of space, through Brunelleschi's perspective in the early Renaissance, then with atmospheric rendering in the sixteenth century, up until the depiction of every single vibration of light on objects in Impressionism.

The style developed by Eugenio Poppi demonstrates a post-Impressionist maturity: this artist's exploration, in fact, emphasizes the expressive potential of color to achieve remarkable representational heights in this stylistic register. The composition is entirely compressed into the foreground, without any concessions to spatial depth. The painter's aim is not to capture the sensory aspect of the view, but to capture its very essence, its substance. To this end, the diluted brushstroke intervenes, which, despite the essentiality of the representation, investigates the objects, breaking them down into different planes, recording the vibrations of light and life within them. The sensory aspect, therefore, is completely transcended in a complex conception of pictorial practice in which the artist's gestures also play a fundamental role. Even from a purely aesthetic perspective, the composition resolves itself in a harmonious dialogue of chromatic zones, created by the balanced arrangement of colors. Finally, the use of light, capturing vivid reflections through rapid strokes of white, is noteworthy.

As we can see from the analysis of this work, Eugenio Poppi (1922) is a painter who has developed in-depth research into the representation of objects and their perception. His pictorial language is linked to the post-impressionist movements according to his own original inclination.
