{"product_id":"ugo-riva-piero-7","title":"Ugo Riva - To Piero","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e The iconography of motherhood is closely linked to the subject of the Madonna and Child. It is probably one of the most popular iconographies in the history of both Western and Eastern art. The Madonna and Child appears since the dawn of medieval painting and remained a constant subject as long as religious themes dominated artistic production (that is, until the 19th century, when themes inspired by everyday life began to be introduced).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThroughout his career, Ugo Riva's research has been directed at recovering the art of the past and reinterpreting it with a contemporary sensibility. In particular, Riva has always held classical, Greek, Roman, and Renaissance art in mind. In this specific case, the title of the sculpture itself reveals a deliberate intent to reference Piero della Francesca and recontextualize it for our time. Ugo Riva's language, in fact, is contemporary. The form is synthetic, expressionist, and even the conception of space transcends the laws of perspective and phenomenal reality. Riva also reconfigures his model by applying his own personal poetics of the \"unfinished,\" leaving the sculpture's surfaces as if barely rough-hewn.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eUgo Riva, a sculptor from Bergamo, has always favored figurative art throughout his career. Starting with a study of ancient classicism, he developed a masterful technique in the naturalistic rendering of subjects and anatomical precision. His attention later shifted to contemporary sculptors such as Manzù, Arturo Martini, and Marino Marini, developing a quest for expressionist values ​​and a poetics of the \"unfinished.\"\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bandinu Giuseppe","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56212960674178,"sku":"GBAN005","price":8900.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/177.jpg?v=1768407882","url":"https:\/\/cjfh11-ee.myshopify.com\/en\/products\/ugo-riva-piero-7","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
