{"product_id":"giorgio-de-chirico-teseo","title":"Giorgio De Chirico - Theseus","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThe iconography of this work is inspired by a conscious classicist quotation. The artistic language draws on classical antiquity, both Greek and Roman. This translates into an execution whose primary goal is mimesis, that is, the human need to imitate and reproduce nature and its surroundings. However, here we see a reworking by the master de Chirico, so that even the classical subject evokes a sense of alienation, in keeping with his metaphysical aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eClassicist quotationism is a fundamental component of Giorgio de Chirico's aesthetic. Often, in keeping with the dictates of Metaphysical Art, classical or archaeological references are placed in an unusual context, creating a disorienting effect. In this case, we find ourselves faced with a drawing in which the artist has imprinted his own trademark, namely the presence of an archaic element drawn from a gallery of images from the past. Even the execution, cold and uninstinctive, is in keeping with De Chirico's rationalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eGiorgio De Chirico, born in Volos, Greece, in 1888, died in Rome in 1978. He is the founder of Metaphysical painting. De Chirico reclaims images that already exist, familiar to the collective imagination. But he creates an effect of estrangement through the process of displacement—the sudden appearance of an object outside its usual context—or condensation, the fusion of multiple objects into a single entity. Metaphysical painting is also characterized by the illusory nature of its images.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"De Joannon Attilio 3700","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56211973276034,"sku":"ADEJ003","price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/IMG_20180628_124327.jpg?v=1768402547","url":"https:\/\/venderequadri.it\/en\/products\/giorgio-de-chirico-teseo","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
