The artistic movement founded by Giorgio De Chirico reclaims images that already exist, familiar to the collective imagination. However, it creates an effect of alienation through the process of displacement—the sudden appearance of an object outside its usual context—or through condensation, the fusion of multiple objects into a single entity. Metaphysical art is also distinguished by the ostentatiously illusory nature of its images. This multiple, a perfect example of Ciro Palumbo's work, perfectly fits these aesthetic canons, presenting the plausible yet mysterious situation of objects arranged in a room, in an immobile, silent atmosphere. All this is achieved with a hyper-realistic, provocative, and illusory language.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eThe manner in which the subject was depicted draws inspiration from hyperrealist currents. Hyperrealism aims for a completely objective representation of reality: the artist's desire is to reproduce what he sees before his eyes without any interpretation. In this sense, the hyperrealist aesthetic also constitutes a paradox, often consciously sought by artists. Indeed, thanks also to the use of very aggressive techniques, inspired by the world of advertising, and the use of bright color palettes, a rendering of the naturalistic element is achieved so pure as to appear illusory, deliberately fake. Ciro Palumbo's hyperrealism often addresses rooms: interiors of homes, rooms that the artist captures on canvas with his objective lucidity. The presence of life is reduced to a minimum, delegated to the sole existence of objects used by who knows who. In these interiors, one perceives a sense of immobility, of unreal suspension. So much so that, together with the fact that Palumbo formally practices a deliberately illusory realism, we can speak of a metaphysical aesthetic language.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\n \u003cp\u003eCiro Palumbo was born in Zurich in 1965. He entered the art world working for several years as an art director in advertising agencies in Turin. He began exhibiting in 1994, subsequently appearing in around one hundred solo shows throughout Italy. In 2011, he participated in the Piedmont Pavilion at the 54th Venice Biennale. Among his international exhibitions are his participation at Artexpo in New York, Context Art Miami, and solo shows in Providence, USA, and Bellinzona, Switzerland. Some of Palumbo's works are included in the collection of the Credito Bergamasco Foundation, at the Civica Galleria d'Arte Moderna G. Sciortino in Monreale (PA), at the MACIST Museum in Biella, at the Palazzo della Cultura, and at the MACS in Catania. He lives and works in Turin.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zanoli Agnese (euro 1800)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56218370933122,"sku":"AZAN003","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/128F0528-AC6E-4003-8795-E145C371807B-300x228-1.jpg?v=1768473081","url":"https:\/\/venderequadri.it\/en\/products\/ciro-palumbo-prossimi-incontri","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
