{"product_id":"ugo-attardi-senza-titolo-21","title":"Ugo Attardi - Untitled","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\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 nude is the ultimate 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 nude has also been a central theme in the new aesthetic concepts brought about by the historical avant-garde movements, such as Cubism, Expressionism, and Surrealism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThis sculpture is particularly interesting for appreciating artist Ugo Attardi's study of the human figure. For Attardi, the basis remains the reality of a concrete and tangible representation, immediately relatable to the subject. But the artist, at the same time, feels the need to go beyond mere phenomenal reality and integrate it with his own subjectivity. For this reason, the figure undergoes unnaturalistic deformations, which nevertheless play a fundamental role in its expressiveness. In this case, the human body is adapted to the circular form of the bas-relief, and the material is worked to appear alive and vibrant.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eUgo Attardi, born in Sori in 1923 and died in Rome in 2006, was a painter and sculptor. After beginning his career as an abstract artist, joining the Forma 1 group, in the 1950s he turned to Expressionism, drawing inspiration from Bacon and Grosz. He participated in several editions of the Venice Biennale and the Rome Quadrennial and exhibited his work in numerous solo and group shows in Italy and abroad.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Baretta Alberto","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56213117600130,"sku":"ABAR004","price":3000.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/ATTARDI_8b58030a-dd6b-4887-990d-dc656877dc0b.jpg?v=1768408551","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/ugo-attardi-senza-titolo-21","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
