Portrait of a Woman 1951

Oil on canvas. Signed and dated lower left. The date of the work places this work in the period in which ORAZI was already projecting himself towards a less realistic painting, creating a portrait characterized by very marked physiognomic features, almost geometric, and a color scheme that plays on the variation of a single color range. The figure portrayed is that of an elderly woman, belonging to the peasant world.

Mexican Peasant Figure 1956

Oil on canvas. Signed and dated 1956 lower left. The French painter ORAZI stayed in Mexico in 1955 and then in 1956-57, which was an exceptionally attractive world for intellectuals and artists of the time. The natural scenery, the customs and traditions of the local population were the themes that converged in the series of paintings called Peintures sur le Mexique, landscapes, compositions and portraits without giving in to the taste for the exotic, with an extremely careful work on the color to represent, without descriptivism, the elements of nature and the figures of men and women, already projected towards abstraction. This pictorial series, composed of 35 pieces, was then exhibited in 1957, upon his return to France, at the Vendôme Gallery in Paris. The painting comes from the private collection of the artist's family.

Trame di Vita 2011

Acrylic on wood and collage of various materials. On the back, under the protective cardboard, there is an artist's label with the signature and the title of the work. Clara Bartolini, a multifaceted artist (she has tried her hand at painting, photography, collage, sculpture, assembly, always looking for new materials and new creative paths, but also with poetry, scenography, she is a stylist) said of this series of her works called Trame: "I have always worked with thread, a very representative symbolic element, it assures me of the return, it shows me the paths already taken, it keeps alive the thought on what is important in my life. Ariadne's thread, the fil rouge, the thread of the speech and, why not, mending the tear, putting a patch on it and much more. Thread (I have also been a stylist) has always had a great importance in my life. It often appears in my works, in cotton, copper, brass, iron, nylon. In order not to lose the thread...". The work is presented in a frame.

The Ancient Triskelion 1997

Mixed media on board. Signed and dated lower right. On the back, further signature, date and title. Driven by an intense intellectual curiosity that has characterized every moment of his experience, not only creative, but also human and professional, the Ancona artist Giorgio Villa has developed his own principles of thought and action, on rigorous bases of a scientific-mathematical approach, nourished by a profound poetic inspiration and a deep-rooted sense of beauty. The search for a path to follow, free from patterns or cultural ties characterizes his art; Villa moves in the sphere of imagination, feelings and the poetry of images. Each work is the fruit of a meditated inspiration, moment by moment, allowing space for reflection, for the considered gesture, analyzing the relationships between space and matter, between colors and shape, to identify the perfect synthesis, which makes a work of art unique and unrepeatable. In this work Villa depicts the Triskelion, or the ancient symbol formed by three spirals joined at a central point, more generally three intertwined spirals, or, by extension, any other symbol with three protuberances and a triple rotational symmetry.

Mixed media on paper. Signature and title of the work at the bottom. Caccioni, an artist who was born, trained and still lives in Bologna, is one of the protagonists of a generation that has now reached a definitive linguistic maturity and occupies a prominent space within the contemporary artistic panorama. His research mainly uses unusual materials such as acetates, PVC and, more recently, stage backdrops from 19th-century theatrical works, on which he intervenes by painting shapes drawn from a personal memory and from suggestions coming from different cultures and historical periods. A recurring element in Luca Caccioni's work is writing, a self-signifying sign that designs the work and is capable of recounting thoughts; working by superimposition, the images are constructed by adding or subtracting color on the various supports. Work in frame.

Untitled, 2003

Mixed media on paper. Signed and numbered on the back. Copy No. 40 of an edition of 350, of which the first 50 copies are numbered and signed by the artist. These works were created as an attachment to the Catalogue of the 1040th exhibition at the Galleria del Cavallino -Venice, held in October 2003 and dedicated to the works of Paolo Patelli, as indicated in the colophon of the brochure, where there is a further signature of the artist and dedication. Paolo Patelli, an artist of Istrian origins, expresses the joy of painting, creating works that are enriched by his passion for music. The rhythmic spirit of the artist's style captures movements, translating them into a visual language that breaks the mold of traditional artistic models, making every line and every brushstroke visible, leaving a wide exposure of the paper surface.

Burnished and wrought copper plate, with lighter spot decorations, embossing and holes, mounted on a red-stained plywood panel.
