Spartaco Lombardo - Untitled

A noble animal, a symbol of beauty and harmony, the horse has repeatedly been a prominent subject in the history of art. Since the fourteenth century, its presence has always been obligatory in battle scenes and equestrian monuments, and for painters, depicting it with anatomical precision and naturalistic rendering has been a challenge.

Spartaco Lombardo's works dedicated to the horse are characterized by a perfect balance between the naturalistic rendering of the subjects and the exaltation of the animal's inherent dynamism. This dynamism is accentuated right from the composition, which features diagonal cuts or directional lines appropriate for depicting the horses' running. The subjects' bodies are plastically delineated, structured by dense material. The artist's approach, however, is, as always, very rapid and complex, full of vibrations that enhance the speed and dynamism in a decidedly expressive manner.

Spartaco Lombardo was born in Luino, on Lake Maggiore, on March 26, 1958. A modern figurative painter, he has exhibited his work in solo and group shows in Italy and abroad and has participated in numerous national and international competitions. His works are held in private and institutional art collections. He began his professional career as a painter in 1981.
