Above all, a portrait is a description of the represented subject, an attempt to faithfully and naturally capture their features and individual characteristics. As artistic exploration gradually evolved, the physiognomic description of the subject was accompanied by a psychological one. Thus, over the centuries, portraiture has also become a means of introspective inquiry into the subject, their character, and their state of mind. The processes of abstraction introduced by contemporary art have supported this type of inquiry.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nIn this portrait of a boy wearing a cowboy costume, Alberto Casarotti seems to tone down the vigorous expressionism derived from his association with the “Corrente” group in favor of a more intimate and familiar representation. The portrait is, in fact, characterized by a subdued, minimalist realism. It lacks the unnaturalistic exaggerations of his other works, as well as expressionistic distortions. However, the subject’s physical substance remains hollowed out, entirely resolved on a flat surface, indicating that Casarotti’s aim is always to delve deeper to rediscover the true essence of things. The boy’s figure is defined by a vibrant black line that indicates its form, which is then filled with an almost “à plat” application of color in a subtle harmony of browns. This application is far removed from the gestural force that characterizes other works, confirming the minimalist nature of this portrait. For Casarotti, minimalism means not only familial intimacy but also synthesis and, ultimately, yet another form of expressionistic representation, this time conducted in a more subdued tone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlberto Casarotti was born in Verona in 1906 and passed away in Montalto di Rivoli in 1991.

With his first official exhibition in 1945 at the Santa Redegonda gallery, Casarotti immediately achieved success with both the public and critics.

In the case of this print, we can appreciate an unpublished Alberto Casarotti interested in exploring plasticism. The expressive medium is the black line, always vibrant and quivering with life, which this time is not used to achieve a process of synthesis, but acquires a structural role in defining the subject's form. This form nevertheless undergoes some expressive distortion, with broadening lines and a certain blockiness. The print is therefore characterized by an ostentatious plastic exaltation despite the minimalism of the expressive medium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlberto Casarotti was born in Verona in 1906 and passed away in Montalto di Rivoli in 1991.

Later, painters’ interest in the floral world, especially among the Impressionists, grows ever greater, as it provides an extraordinary opportunity to capture chromatic and luminous vibrations. Thus, flowers are depicted not only in vases but also immersed in their natural landscape. While at the beginning of its history it provided painters with a pretext for a photographic reproduction of reality, with contemporary art the subject of flowers also becomes a way of interpreting reality.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAlberto Casarotti’s pictorial style was influenced by his close association with the “Corrente” group, and especially by Renato Birolli. His training therefore took place in a context that, in opposition to the traditionalism of Novecento, called for a return to the avant-garde, particularly to the Expressionist language. In keeping with this approach, Alberto Casarotti’s pictorial practice involves a high degree of synthesis in relation to the subjects. They are as if stripped of their materiality, and what emerges is their purest essence, determined by the power of color and the painterly gesture. Objects, therefore, reduced to their essentials in a two-dimensional space, are evoked through a very fluid line, typical of Corrente’s Expressionist reinterpretation, in a vibrant representation of vital energy. This energy determines the deformations and folds of the object, forcing the sensory data toward a more decisive and vigorous expressiveness. The application of color follows the same line: the brushstroke is powerful, almost gestural, confirming the Expressionist vigor. In the power of color, sensory data dissolve, and object and space merge into one in a highly evocative image.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAlberto Casarotti was born in Verona in 1906 and passed away in Montalto di Rivoli in 1991.

Since classical antiquity, the naturalistic rendering of human anatomy has been one of the primary goals of painters and sculptors throughout history. The representation of the nude is the ultimate expression of this aspiration, transcending all eras and stylistic movements. Indeed, in addition to the naturalistic interpretations characteristic of the Renaissance and various forms of classicism, which aim for a faithful and detailed representation of the human body, the nude has also been a central theme in the new aesthetic conceptions introduced by the historical avant-garde movements, such as Cubism, Expressionism, and Surrealism.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nAlberto Casarotti's painting style was influenced by his close association with the \"Corrente\" group, and especially by Renato Birolli.
