Valerio Carrera - Escape

The painting can be defined as a genre scene, that is, the depiction of an episode of everyday life that, apparently, lacks any significant element. These types of domestic subjects were long considered minor and only began to spread in Western art starting in the 17th century. Only with the development of 19th-century realism did everyday subjects become considered as important as historical or religious ones.

Valerio Carrera's artistic language tends to minimize phenomenal reality, but this exercise in reducing sensory data helps the artist go beyond the appearance of things and capture their true essence. What remains is the spiritual and emotional concentration of the subject, with which Carrera seeks to connect, eliminating any formal frills and leaving only an elegant trace to identify the subject. This trace consists of a sinuous line that constructs the image in a nervous and lively manner. This is combined with color distributed in light and balanced patches.

Valerio Carrera is a painter originally from Torrazza, where he was born in 1946. His style elegantly blends reality and abstraction, objectivity and subjectivity. The result is an elegant, minimalist painting style rich in harmony and lightness.
