Description of the work
Description of the work
The work is an abstract composition. "Abstract" derives from the Latin term "abstrahere," which means to extract or draw out. The process of abstraction, in fact, consists of eliminating the particular and individual aspects of an object to derive a universal concept. From Kandinsky to Mondrian, from Pollock to Mirò, many painters have pushed the process of abstraction to the limit in their works, paradoxically creating pure forms and colors that do not exist in nature, or translating their emotions and instincts into images.
In this work, Silvano Braido demonstrates a different approach than his usual magical realism. He seems to hark back to a primitive, tribal abstract expressionism, as the title suggests. The artist's synthesis reduces perception to a superposition of pictorial and decorative layers that form a sort of fetish from some pre-Columbian civilization. Braido, however, introduces elements typical of a contemporary sensibility. He breaks down space according to multiple directions with a pronounced geometric rationality, drawing on the influences of cubism and historical abstraction. The harmonious polychromy of the overall work is highly evocative.
Silvano Braido (Treviso 1947-2020) explored drawing and various painting techniques, and made his first etchings. From his first exhibitions, he revealed himself as a creative and captivating artist. With a refined pictorial sense, he has always created images of extraordinary beauty: infinite skies and fantastical creatures that illuminate the scenes of his conversations with life.
