Vanni - 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.

In the composition of this still life, we find the fundamental principle underlying Vanni's poetics: the desire to reach the purest essence of things. In this work, Vanni strives for synthesis and abstraction. The objects' form is indicated only by an elegant, sinuous, wavy line, while their substance is resolved by a dynamic, iridescent painterly impasto of acidic, expressionist colors. The artist's gestures are also very agitated, giving life to almost evanescent objects, like apparitions in the dark, decontextualized space of the work.

As we can see from the analysis of this work, the artist Vanni has an abstract vision of sensitive reality, so that even a simple still life is transfigured in its pictorial gesture and in the expressive qualities of color.
