Remo Salvadori - Untitled

Portraiture is one of the most widespread artistic expressions, especially in painting, but also in sculpture, throughout the ages. Portraiture is, first and foremost, a description of the subject depicted, an attempt to convey their physiognomy and individual characteristics truthfully and naturally. With the progressive evolution of artistic research, the physiognomic description of the subject has also been accompanied by a psychological one. Therefore, over the centuries, portraiture has also become a means of introspective investigation of the subject, their character, and their state of mind. The processes of abstraction brought about by contemporary art have contributed to this type of investigation.

In this portrait, painter Remo Salvadori demonstrates the refinement and, at the same time, the sophistication of his artistic language. He begins with a formal synthesis based on a complex pictorial layering. At the same time, this layering, composed of long, dense brushstrokes, manages to enhance the subject's volumes. Characterized by a clear plasticity, the face thus takes on a sculptural quality, heightening its expressionistic vigor.

Remo Salvadori was born in Cerreto Guidi in 1947. He trained at the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence, but his career took place in Milan, where he settled in the 1970s. A representative of a later generation of artists than that of Arte Povera or Conceptual Art, Remo Salvadori focused his research on the symbolic nature of geometric shapes and primary colors.
