Description from the seller
About Bertipaglia
Francisco Bertipaglia's themes always unfold within the trauma of ecological and moral disintegration.
Presenting the issue of the modern, technological world that contributes to a continuous and poignant isolation. Violence, war, drugs, ecology, and AIDS are subjects that Bertipaglia paints to violently denounce the sad and anguished condition of humanity; in works dedicated to these themes Bertipaglia offers no respite, gives no sense of redemption, denounces the unsolvable drama of the lost self so despairingly. His paintings seem extrapolated from the terrible Dantean circles; Hell is not mere fantasy but the terrible life condition that man has produced for other men. The value of these works lies in the fact that Francisco Bertipaglia, while openly denouncing these situations, cradles an art technically flawless—these most devastating characters—to lift them up and help us consider them victims. Being the same sensitive and poetic painter, he grants himself some alternatives by painting other canvases, where the reds of blood become delicate pinks, where the cold greys become blue, where his furious drawing transforms into a delicate embroidery and seems to become the other miraculous Dantean tale: "the
"Paradise." Faces of women, angelic butterflies free, and games of struggles among animals, are other themes that Bertipaglia paints. It is in these paintings, imbued with delicate sensitivity, that Bertipaglia views with optimism the continuation of life. (Pericle Fazzini)
On the Work
“qui” and “non qui”.
For centuries, women have been deified in art and literature, while at the same time being belittled or humiliated in everyday life.
We are confronted with three symbols of fertility: the orchid, the woman who clings to this flower as if it were a part of her, and a stag.
to bring a new life into the world.
Is there perhaps something more transcendent?
The wild deer, wandering along the path, saves the human soul from its own thoughts.
