Salvo, Mediterraneo

SalvoMediterraneo, 2008

Oil on canvas

60 x 60 cm

About the artist

Salvo (1947–2015) was an Italian Conceptualist in dialogue with the burgeoning Arte Povera movement before his practice dramatically shifted in 1973, when the artist turned decisively to figurative painting. His oil paintings embrace the aesthetics of traditional art histories, from Giotto and Botticelli to Italian Futurism and Surrealism, employing flat geometric forms and rich colors that draw attention to the artifice of his ethereal landscapes and cityscapes.
