Giovanni Greco (1953 Italy]
Acrylic textural on canvas
artist's signature on front and back;
Certificate of authenticity from the artist
GIOVANNI GRECO was born in Catania, a city where he lives and works. After unfinished biology studies and further explorations of artistic studies, he enrolled at the Scuola del Nudi in Catania and in 1980 began his painting activity, starting contemporaneously from the Magrittean example and subsequently from De Chirico, where it was possible to resolve two layers, apparently contradictory, the dream and the objective reality, in a kind of absolute reality.
At the core of his research is a strong drive aimed at solving the great dilemmas of existence and the relationship between self and the world, seeking to interpret “thought” — sometimes unmistakable passages — the work of the artist Giovanni Greco, ineffable as a means to cast fundamental problems of which our mind never ceases to free itself into new light, staging visual coercions, the coercions of the soul; further he is drawn to metaphysical painting and especially to the works of G. De Chirico, not so much for stylistic choices but for the underscored interest expressed in a solid compositional integrity; objects, figures and even space itself become powerful masses given by the dark, thick chromatic volumes in a context where time seems arrested and the subjects suspended between metaphysical influence and neoclassical allusions drawn from past works shaken by time, in an unknown world.
It is the world of the “éndonèxò”, a term coined by the artist — (éndon-éxò) where the gaze is clearly directed toward itself and into things but at the same time makes his desire felt to bring his painting closer to the observer’s lived experience, drawing up from the depths of the soul and gradually substituting, with new dark forces, the clear and simple spaces of reason.
