For religious reasons, various types of animals appear in the works of various ancient civilizations. It was especially in the Middle Ages, within the International Gothic style, that animal depictions became widespread as true life portraits, both within works of art and in notebooks of drawings and sketches. The presence of animals as subjects in art remained constant until the contemporary era. Within the vast and versatile oeuvre of the painter Smenghi, the cycle dedicated to birds is a very extensive one comprising numerous works. The artist undertook extensive research into the figure of the bird, its wing structure, and the dynamism of its flight, which led him to conceive various expressive modules.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eThis work is highly significant in helping us appreciate the depth of Smenghi's expressive exploration within his pictorial cycle dedicated to birds. In this painting, the artist achieves an almost informal stylistic register where the force of the pictorial gesture prevails. The figure of the bird is virtually dismantled, and its volumes expand across the canvas, transformed into pure pictorial matter. Through the painter's gestural skill, the work conveys the lightness and dynamism of flight. Everything, therefore, is resolved in a complex yet refined blend of colors. The artist gives very little to form in this work, but just enough to convey the symbolic power of the subject, in that dynamic movement of the wings opening in the lightness of an iridescent atmosphere.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eGiampiero Lambertenghi, known as Smenghi, is an artist from Cuneo. Smenghi stands out for his original pictorial research, focusing on the subject of birds in flight. His style is based on gesture and the application of color in a manner that conveys the dynamism and lightness of flight.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Servidone Roberto","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218609844610,"sku":"RSER001","price":1400.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/PHOTO-2023-03-07-15-36-37.jpg?v=1768474736","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/smenghi-giampiero-lambertenghi-senza-titolo","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
