Renato Bertoloni - Exotic Fruits

The "Still Life" genre emerged in the early 17th century. It consists of compositions of inanimate subjects, most often flowers or fruit. While initially it was an opportunity for painters to attempt a photographic reproduction of reality, with contemporary art the "Still Life" also becomes a way of interpreting reality, as it did for the Cubists or Giorgio Morandi.

Painter Renato Bertoloni stands out for his use of color, which is the undisputed protagonist of his work. The space of his paintings tends to be two-dimensional, and the surface is divided into broad chromatic zones. His application is composed of broad, sinuous brushstrokes or thick, dense dashes of color. In this way, color also has a structural function, delineating the volumes of objects. His palette is also highly distinctive: Renato Bertoloni favors very bright colors, almost aggressive in their expressiveness.

Renato Bertoloni was a painter born in Busseto in 1924 and died in Milan in 1986. His paintings focused primarily on traditional genres such as landscapes, still lifes, and genre scenes. He developed his own personal style, distinguished by the strength of his brushstrokes and the expressiveness of his colors.
