{"product_id":"sughi-senza-titolo","title":"Alberto Sughi - Untitled","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe human figure has always been at the center of artistic research. Since the classical age, the naturalistic rendering of human anatomy has been a primary goal of painters and sculptors throughout history. The representation of the female figure is an expression of this aspiration, pervasive across all eras and stylistic trends. Indeed, in addition to the naturalistic interpretations of the Renaissance and various classicisms, which aimed for a truthful and detailed representation of the human body, the female figure has also been a central figure in the new aesthetic concepts brought about by the historical avant-garde, such as Cubism, Expressionism, and Surrealism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eAlberto Sughi's artistic poetics recurs in most of his works. The depicted scene, in fact, has an exquisitely symbolic and existential connotation, displaying a paucity of physiognomic details, of objective particulars that might identify the situation or even place it within a social context. Sughi's existentialist art is not interested in external social reality, but rather in the individual's interior, which the artist explores through his expressive means. The pictorial deformations that characterize Sughi's paintings are a means of expressing his existentialist anxieties. As is his wont, Sughi precisely frames the scene, delineating an interior within which this beautiful female figure, seen from behind, stands out. In this space, the artist highlights internal tensions by expressively deforming the subject, who is pervaded by emotional vibrations. However, compared to other works in which the expressionist language prevails, in this piece Sughi seems driven by a greater desire to exalt the plastic qualities of the human body.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eAlberto Sughi, Cesena 1928 – Bologna 2012, always chose the path of realism throughout his painting career. However, Sughi's realism never had a social orientation; rather, its focus shifted to the human condition, to human solitude: this is why Sughi's painting has been described as \"existentialist realism.\" In the 1960s, Sughi's realism was influenced by Bacon, presenting distortions in his subjects and spatial settings similar to those of the English artist.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bucci Graziella","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56217914933634,"sku":"GBUC001","price":1080.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/PHOTO-2021-06-14-16-31-152.jpg?v=1768469464","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/sughi-senza-titolo","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
