Description from the seller
Antonio Sciacca
Oil on canvas 90x65
Untitled
Signed front and back
Splendid and imposing oil-on-canvas work by master Antonio Sciacca, generously sized at 90x65 cm.
The painting represents a perfect synthesis of the artist’s poetics in which figurative sacredness and historical memory dialog with the languages of international contemporary art.
On the intense black background, on the right emerges the stylized, almost hydraulic face of a sculpture inspired by devotional/wooden motifs, with a solemn profile and hypnotic eyes, a hallmark of Sciacca’s painting.
On the left, in clear chromatic and conceptual contrast, stands a vivid pink balloon-animal swan that recalls the iconic Neo-Pop aesthetic of Jeff Koons.
Sciacca’s painting mastery is evident in the mirrored effect and the light highlights laid on oil to render the balloon’s synthetic, glossy material, contrasted with the warm, patinated, and almost wooden texture of the Bust.
The work is signed at the bottom left on the front.
On the back it bears the autograph and the artist’s handwritten certification:
"Opera da me eseguita Antonio Sciacca"
Together with numbers, atelier marks, and catalog references on the wooden frame.
Hand-signed on the front and personally authenticated by the master on the back of the canvas.
The painting is accompanied by the original photographic documentation showing the master Antonio Sciacca holding the work.
