{"product_id":"remo-squillantini-le-amiche","title":"Remo Squillantini - The Friends","description":"\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThe subject matter and the author's interpretation suggest a satirical intent toward bourgeois society and its hypocrisies. The composition has a highly ironic and mocking tone. The work clearly seeks to ridicule the hypocritical morality of certain members of our bourgeoisie.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eRemo Squillantini's pictorial language is entirely geared toward biting irony: the composition is deliberately childish, the figures are crowded together in the foreground, and the subjects are caricatured, with their dull expressions inspiring a sense of emptiness. Squillantini's language in this painting has strong connections to the German New Objectivity movement. The same simplified and childish interpretation of realism, based on a marked plasticity, is evident, though Squillantini's forms have a more material consistency. We find the same cynical nature of painters like George Grosz and Otto Dix in lashing out at their own society with lucid irony.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n \u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eRemo Squillantini was a painter born in Stia in 1920 and died in Florence in 1996. He began his career as an illustrator, working for both Italian and international publishers. He later devoted himself exclusively to painting, creating a series of ironic and grotesque characters aimed at scathingly satirizing contemporary society. He also occasionally revisited works of the past, always with an ironic twist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Venturini Luciano","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56211953418626,"sku":"LVEN002","price":5500.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/7065\/3058\/files\/IMG_5637.jpg?v=1768402403","url":"https:\/\/venderequadri.it\/en\/products\/remo-squillantini-le-amiche","provider":"Venderequadri","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
