Ciro Rubinacci - Pino Daniele

Portraiture is one of the most widespread artistic expressions, especially in painting, but also in sculpture, throughout all eras. A portrait is, first and foremost, a description of the represented subject, an attempt to faithfully and naturally capture their physiognomy and individual characteristics. As artistic exploration gradually evolved, the physiognomic description of the subject was accompanied by a psychological one. Therefore, 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 further supported this type of inquiry.

Ciro Rubinacci interprets the portrait genre according to a very classical conception based on a perfect, photographic, almost hyperrealistic reproduction of the subject. This is due, first and foremost, to the artist's extraordinary technique, capable of transferring every minute physiognomic detail of the chosen subject onto the artwork. It is a perfect reproduction, yet not hyperrealistic, because Ciro Rubinacci's brushwork is nevertheless vibrant, managing to overcome the cold objectivity typical of hyperrealism. The representation thus, although absolutely faithful to the subject, is tempered by a lively interpretation, even in the monochromatic choice of evocative black and white.

Ciro Rubinacci is known above all as a theatre set designer, owner of the company bearing the same name, famous for the many productions it has created. He is therefore an artist with an excellent technical background who also develops this in the production of paintings, especially portraits.
