In the Umbrian region, cradle of the pre-Renaissance era, important for those first realistic sparks that sprang from nature and from those empirical forms of spatial representation, lives Carlo Mirabasso.
A humble yet reflective artist who, intelligently, couples a way of painting that is at times geometric and rhythmic to that primordial expressive quality of the volumes of the medieval world, perhaps the embryo of all modern art to come.
A "delicate harmony" that in his works on panel, like the thirteenth-century altarpieces, between studies of a pre-Cubist matrix and landscape verticalities, is completed in his painting techniques, almost marble-like; charged with a subtle material symbolism with a mural meaning in which the fresco technique re-emerges, and in that tranquility of places, dear to De Chirico, where space and time stop in the frame image, Mirabasso brings to the surface sensations of metaphysical memory.

BIOGRAPHY

Carlo Mirabasso was born in Tivoli in 1959.
In 1979 he graduated from the Liceo Artistico Ripetta in Rome.
Between the 1980s and 1990s, in addition to painting, he worked in advertising graphics and illustration, collaborating with numerous advertising agencies and publishing houses.
In the early 1990s he began painting his first metaphysical compositions, refining a personal painting technique on panel that would become fundamental to his research, outlining a path that would lead him to establish himself as a professional artist.
Since 1996 he has abandoned advertising graphics and devoted himself exclusively to painting.
He has participated in numerous exhibitions, showing his works in Rome, Milan, Florence, Bari, Teramo, Potenza, Padua, Auckland (New Zealand), Marbella (Spain), Taipei (Taiwan). He lives and works in Bastia Umbra, Perugia.
