Carlo Mirabasso lives in Umbria, a cradle of the pre-Renaissance period, a region significant for those first realistic sparks that emerged from nature and from those empirical forms of spatial representation. A modest yet thoughtful artist, he intelligently brings together a style of painting marked by geometric, rhythmic features and the expressive primitivism of the volumes of the medieval world, perhaps the seed of all the modern art that followed. A “delicate harmony” that, in his works on panel, like fourteenth-century altarpieces, unfolds through studies rooted in pre-Cubism and vertical landscapes, and comes to completion in his almost marble-like painting techniques; rich in a subtle material symbolism with a mural quality, where the fresco technique resurfaces, and in the stillness of places dear to De Chirico, where space and time come to a halt in the image of the frame, Mirabasso brings sensations of metaphysical memory to the surface.

BIOGRAPHY
Carlo Mirabasso was born in Tivoli in 1959. In 1979, he graduated from the Ripetta Art High School in Rome. During the 1980s and 1990s, alongside 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 and perfected a personal painting technique on panel that would become fundamental to his artistic research, setting him on a path that would lead to recognition as a professional artist. In 1996, he left advertising graphics behind and devoted himself exclusively to painting. He has taken part in numerous exhibitions and has exhibited his works in Rome, Milan, Florence, Bari, Teramo, Potenza, Padua, Auckland (New Zealand), Marbella (Spain), and Taipei (Taiwan). He lives and works in Bastia Umbra, Perugia.

TECHNIQUE AND UNIQUENESS OF THE ARTWORK
Every painting by Carlo Mirabasso, a professional artist who has devoted himself exclusively to painting since the 1990s, is made entirely by hand, without the use of prints, reproductions, or other photomechanical techniques. The artist begins with a blank, textured support—usually a wood panel or canvas—which he has prepared himself, then sketches the composition in pencil, allowing the work to develop naturally. Next, through his skilful use of the brush, Mirabasso creates the textures, glazes, and depth characteristic of his metaphysical painting, using extra-fine acrylic and oil paints. Once complete, the artwork is protected with a top-quality clear varnish which, in addition to shielding it from external elements, lends the painting luminosity and brilliance. Each work is unique and unrepeatable.
