Tamasio - Untitled

The "Still Life" genre emerged in the early 17th century. It consisted of compositions of inanimate subjects, most often flowers or fruit. While initially it was an opportunity for painters to experiment with naturalistic or photographic reproductions of reality, with contemporary art, the "Still Life" also became a way of interpreting reality. Indeed, as happened, for example, in the Cubist avant-garde or in Giorgio Morandi, the in-depth exploration of objects was aimed at a conceptual representation, taken beyond the mere sensory aspect.

This work reflects Tamasio's rationalist pursuit of absolute formal and compositional purity. This even reaches a certain level of abstraction, where reality is transfigured into lines and geometric shapes, but through a completely objective and concise language bordering on the metaphysical. The elementary volumes of the objects and the shading are rendered in a deliberately stereotyped manner. Consistent with this rationalist approach, the color is applied using compact areas, leaving no room for any kind of pictorialism. Everything is focused on the exaltation of formal values, in a contemporary interpretation of the most authentic Italian pictorial tradition.

Tamasio, the artist, stands out for his pictorial production, which has focused primarily on traditional genres such as landscapes, still lifes, and genre scenes. He has developed his own personal style, distinguished by a celebration of plasticity with a metaphysical emphasis.
