Description : Prima del tramonto
Oil on wooden hardboard. On the back you have the signature, the date, the title of the work and its technical characteristics. The work is well representative of the production of the Roman artist Paolo Fiorentino, whose pictorial research was always attentive to the form, buildings, architecture with particular attention to the suggestions of that produced in Italy, and beyond, between the two wars . His buildings with geometric lines and opaque or glossy surfaces stand out suspended against solid-coloured backgrounds. They are the urban elements of the collective imagination, which in Fiorentino's paintings appear real and dreamlike at the same time, if not metaphysical.

Additional Information
Artist: Paolo Fiorentino (1965-2019)
Born in Rome in 1965 and died in the same city in 2019. He made his debut in the 80s as a very young plein air painter. He went around his beloved city to paint small views on wood of the Rome he loved most, portions of urban landscapes in which the dialogue between nature and ancient ruins was tinged with beauty. In the 1990s he was one of the founders of the Il Polittico gallery and greatly contributed to the success of that cultural space. In 1996 his participation in the Rome Quadrennial sanctioned his definitive success at a national level among emerging painters. In 2002 he won the Michetti Prize and shortly thereafter became part of the stable of Italian Factory artists who also consecrated him on an international level. Towards the end of the 2000s he began a backward journey of great reflection which slowly led him to isolate himself more and more from the environment of the contemporary art world, which he now considered a superficial and ephemeral world. He has participated in numerous exhibitions, personal and collective, in Italy and abroad. His works have been presented in France, Portugal, Switzerland, Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, Turkey, Australia, Croatia, Serbia and other areas of Eastern Europe. His pictorial research, with essential and rationalist results, was always attentive to the form, buildings, architecture with particular attention to the suggestions of that produced in Italy, and beyond, between the two wars.

La pittura è l'arte che consiste nell'applicare dei pigmenti a un supporto come la carta, la tela, la seta, la ceramica, il legno, il vetro o un muro. Essendo i pigmenti essenzialmente solidi, è necessario utilizzare un legante, che li porti a uno stadio liquido, più fluido o più denso, e un collante, che permetta l'adesione duratura al supporto. Chi dipinge è detto pittore o pittrice. Il risultato è un'immagine che, a seconda delle intenzioni dell'autore, esprime la sua percezione del mondo o una libera associazione di forme o un qualsiasi altro significato, a seconda della sua creatività, del suo gusto estetico e di quello della società di cui fa parte.
