Protagonists of Art - A Tribute to Giorgio de Chirico

This type of subject can be classified within the metaphysical aesthetic. The artistic movement founded by Giorgio de Chirico reclaims images that already exist, familiar to the collective imagination. However, it creates an effect of alienation through the process of displacement, that is, the sudden appearance of an object outside its usual context, or through condensation, the fusion of multiple objects into a single entity. Metaphysical art is also distinguished by the ostentatiously illusory nature of its images. The graphic design is inspired by Giorgio de Chirico's "Hector and Andromache."

The silkscreen is emblematic of Giorgio De Chirico's aesthetic choices and features one of the most recurring subjects in his work: the mannequin. Following the rule of displacement, the mannequin inexplicably appears in a square, and moreover in a space constructed according to impossible perspective rules. But the mannequin itself is also the product of an accumulation, constructed from various entities and objects. Even in his graphic work, De Chirico opted for a very objective and dry style, which tends to highlight the figures and enhance their enigmatic and illusory nature.

The work is part of a collection called "The Protagonists of Art," which features reproductions inspired by works by the great masters of art history. The series consists of graphics created by Roman artisans using the silkscreen method. The resulting plate was then immersed in a 24K gold solution.
