Painting: timeless art…

One of the seven arts, painting is de facto reminiscent of the paintings exhibited in the most prestigious museums, like the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci. However, it is a timeless form of art which has remarkably managed to span the ages, from before Jesus Christ to Prehistory, Antiquity, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. If being a painter had nothing rewarding, today its democratization has made small shadow painters into protagonist artists of society. Oil painting, acrylic, watercolor, pastel or mixed media, painting captivates in all its forms.

Oil painting

Oil painting is a painting technique well known to artists of the 19th and 20th centuries. However, this technique dates back to the end of the Middle Ages, gradually replacing tempora, which then consisted of an emulsion of egg yolk and egg white as well as colored pigments.

Its consistency was quite close to oil paint although it was later preferred for reasons of practicality.

If oil paint is popular, it is because it is a noble, rich, brilliant and creamy paint, particularly pleasant to work with for the painter.

Description
I wanted to treat the theme of “Christ in Limbo” in a way that was both modern and connected to the Mannerist universe. I started with a study sheet by Agnolo Bronzino (1543) and an abstract painting by Alberto Burri (1953). The work of Alberto Burri, maintained until now in the limbo of abstract painting, is seen, thanks to my synchronistic intervention and the redemptive action of Bronzino's drawings, propelled into the paradise of figurative painting!
