Savina Tavano Amodeo - Mario Transport

The subject's depiction draws inspiration from hyperrealist currents. Hyperrealism aims for a completely objective representation of reality: the artist's desire is to reproduce what he sees without any interpretation. In this sense, the hyperrealist aesthetic also constitutes a paradox, often consciously sought by artists. Indeed, thanks in part to the use of highly aggressive techniques, inspired by the world of advertising, and the use of bright color palettes, a rendering of the naturalistic element is achieved that is so pure as to appear illusory, deliberately fake.

In her graphic works, Savina Tavano Amodeo fully embraces a hyperrealist aesthetic. This can be identified, first and foremost, in the precision with which every detail is faithfully reproduced on the painted surface with a cold objectivity. Furthermore, the scene's composition is photographic, reflecting modern image reproduction techniques. Above all, the execution is based on a hyperrealistic language. There is no pictorialism, no atmospheric effects to indicate the fusion between subject and space. Everything is illuminated by a uniform light that unifies the work in a desire for pure objectivity.

Savina Tavano was born in Turin and completed her initial training at the School of Ceramic Art in Faenza. She later attended the Liceo Artistico and the Accademia Albertina. She has an intense artistic career, characterized by collaborations with major publishing houses (Mondadori, Sansoni, Vallecchi, Il Saggiatore, Signorelli), for which she has created numerous illustrations. Since 1973, she and her husband, Manlio Amodeo, have created exquisite graphic works. She has exhibited her creations in several solo shows throughout Italy.
