{"product_id":"ugo-nespolo-i-re-magi","title":"Ugo Nespolo - The Three Wise Men","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe iconography of the Adoration of the Magi is linked to the Christian feast of the Epiphany, the first divine manifestation of Jesus Christ. This religious tradition, which later merged with artistic tradition, is based on the words of the Gospel of Matthew, which speaks of the Magi who were guided to Judea by a star and who brought gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh to Jesus. The scene of the Adoration of the Magi, iconographically, is practically a variant of that of the Nativity. It is distinguished, especially in medieval and modern representations, by the presence of the procession of the Magi, which often served as a pretext for wealthy patrons to be depicted with members of their families adoring the Child Jesus. Let us recall two very famous examples: the Adoration of the Magi by Gentile de Fabriano and that by Benozzo Gozzoli.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eIn the work of Ugo Nespolo, whose artistic language is strongly influenced by Pop Art, the puzzle is the element used to deconstruct and reconstruct the image through an objective process. The subject is transfigured through an intricate interplay of layers that reflects its complexity even in the choice of color palette. Nespolo's compositions always have a very linear and rigorous progression, and his palette is distinguished by electric and acidic hues. The artist's intention to elevate the mass-media language of advertising or design to an artistic medium is clearly evident. Thus, Nespolo's poetics are always expressed through a captivating composition featuring an intricate rhythm of lines and chromatic zones in the overlapping of figures and decompositions, also reminiscent of Cubism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eUgo Nespolo was born in Mosso in 1921. His artistic career in the 1960s was characterized by a distinct Pop leaning. He was also involved in conceptual movements, particularly Arte Povera. His entire artistic output is characterized by a taste for irony and fun. His most famous works present an objective reconstruction of reality through complex interplays of planes and colors.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Girardi Severino","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56217935806850,"sku":"SGIR002","price":7500.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/2.-UGO-NESPOLO-copia.jpg?v=1768469721","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/ugo-nespolo-i-re-magi","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
