Franco Brescianini from Rovato - Faces

In the history of art, a clear distinction can often be made between figurative and abstract stylistic currents. However, when an artist's goal is to represent an object that resonates with phenomenal reality but is also charged with hidden and symbolic meaning, this boundary can become blurred. In the case of Brescianini da Rovato, the result is a synthesis of objective, phenomenal data to develop a highly personal aesthetic language based on drawing and color.

Franco Brescianini da Rovato's paintings have a knack for synthesizing reality by reducing its sensory details. In this painting, the faces are stripped of their physiognomy and volume in favor of a refined composition based on drawing. The entire painting is, in fact, structured around a complex interplay of intersecting curved lines. This creates, on the surface of the painting, a series of zones that the painter fills with a balanced blend of his brilliant, kaleidoscopic palette.

Francesco Brescianini, born in Rovato in 1944, is represented in public and private collections in Italy and abroad. Since 1975, his works have been permanently exhibited at the Civic Museum of Pizzighettone, the Usellini Museum in Arona, the Pinacoteca d'Arte Moderna di Santià, and the Strasbourg Museum. In 1989, he won an important first prize by invitation, the FIAT-IVECO-SAVA-LEASING-PIRELLI prize on the theme of the automobile, and the President of the Republic award at the CRAI in Malpensa. He has held numerous solo exhibitions in Italy and abroad: London, Bonn, Cologne, New Brandenburg, Brussels, Paris, and Nimes. Recently, his works have been exhibited in Toronto, Geneva, Paris, Tokyo, Boston, and New York.
