{"product_id":"renato-guttuso-volti","title":"Renato Guttuso - Faces","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e 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 capture 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThe silkscreen is clearly an \"artist's proof\" in which Renato Guttuso sought to refine his drawing technique. The composition achieves a supremely naturalistic rendering even through the simple formal medium of silkscreen. In addition to the extraordinary precision in capturing the sensory data, Guttuso brought it to life through the play of shadows, achieved through precise hatching, which gently blurs the contours and renders them undefined. The realist element of Guttuso's art is also significant, and in this work it emerges through the presentation of the most varied physiognomies with expressionistic verve.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e Renato Guttuso, born in Bagheria in 1911 and died in Rome in 1987, was a painter deeply involved in politics and social issues. His artistic commitment stemmed from his socialist ideals, his contempt for social injustice and abuses of power. He participated in the Fronte Nuovo delle Arti group, developing a Realist-Expressionist style of painting, thus developing his \"social art.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"De Tomassi Carola","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56211898696066,"sku":"CDET007","price":900.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/IMG_4562.jpg?v=1768401970","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/renato-guttuso-volti","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
