Vitoli - 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.

Vitoli's aim is to offer a simplified interpretation of reality, seeking new values ​​of purity in representation. For this reason, his pictorial approach can be described as naïve, yet it expresses itself in a highly classical and traditional manner. His language, in fact, is essentially figurative. However, the artist manages to infuse tradition with his originality and personal touch, precisely through his pursuit of purity in representation that defines his style. Concretely, this is expressed in a loose technique, which resolves objects with a dense and concrete layering. Thus, even in simplicity and purity, Vitoli manages to enhance the formal values ​​typical of still life. From a chromatic standpoint, a palette of bright and vibrant hues prevails.

As we can see from this work, Vitoli manages to achieve an excellent naturalistic rendering in his works thanks also to the quality of his application, full of luminous and chromatic vibrations, and thanks to a strong realist streak that enlivens with his creativity.
