AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Otto Macerini (1927–2022) – Untitled (Face), 1965
Oil on canvas
Dimensions: 20 × 30 cm
Date of creation: 1965
Catalog number: 68
Original painting sourced directly from the artist’s family archive.
The work belongs to a group of five paintings depicting faces, created by Otto Macerini between 1965 and 1966. It bears witness to a period of artistic exploration marked by a particular interest in the human figure and its interpretation through simplified forms and fields of color.
In this painting, the face emerges from an understated composition, built through delicate tones and measured contrasts.
The facial features are reduced to their essentials, while the paint texture and overlapping brushstrokes
give the surface a striking visual presence.
The frontal positioning of the figure and the simplification of its features give the image an intense, introspective quality, in which the depiction of the face is accompanied by an exploration of form, color, and the texture of the painted surface.
Created in February 1966, the painting documents a moment in Macerini’s artistic exploration in the second half of the 1960s, when his interest in the figure found expression in a personal style, free from purely naturalistic representation.
The work is identified as number 68 in the family archive catalog.
An original small-format painting, belonging to a group of works devoted to the study of the face and the artist’s expressive exploration.
The photographs in the listing also include the original sketch for the work, taken from the artist’s sketchbook, a valuable record of the creative process and preparatory work involved in creating the painting (shown for documentary and illustrative purposes only and not included in the sale).
Provenance and authenticity: The work comes directly from the family archive of Otto Macerini.
It is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity issued by the artist’s archive, attesting to its originality and provenance.
A copy of the statement attributing an artistic coefficient, prepared by Prof. Ilario Luperini, art historian and critic, in relation to Otto Macerini’s artistic output, is also available.
