Tag: Sulle Corde di Aria

The “Come Grinch With Us” exhibition will be held between the 3rd and the 10th of December 2024… And Lufo Art will be part of it! Yay!  That’s right my dear reader, after the amazing experience with the Macro Art Dot exhibition, I am ready for a new shared experience in the art scene of Berlin. Will you Come to Grinch with Us? In this case, I will exhibit 6 new artworks, never shown before, among which you can find: Sulle Corde di Aria Sulle Corde di Aria, acrylic on canvas, 120×90 cm © Lufo Art, 2024 Sulle Corde di Aria is the biggest painting I have ever done on canvas. Although I tend to do more details as big as the canvas is, in this case, I limited to a simple expression and only one human figure. Furthermore, the canvas size means a lot: the sensation when you experience the artwork in real life is far more intense than in a picture. Indeed, it feels like the whole painting is either sucking you down or pulling you up. What’s your sensation? Set Me Free Set Me Free, acrylic on canvas, 50×60 cm. © Lufo Art 2024 I painted this artwork with acrylic colours on a 50×60 cm canvas. In particular, I used a very singular palette of warm tones and high intensity, with cold shadows that generate contrast and detachment. The artwork presents you two paths: first, an infinite stair, from which we can’t escape (set me free!!!). The second, is a stair that will bring you up, but before that, it will dive you deep down to the burning black hole. Which path would you like to take? Be carefoul, the up/down stair is dematerialising, so you don’t have all your life to decide. A Shadow Without A Wizard A Shadow Without a Wizard, ink on canvas, 50×70 cm., © Lufo Art, 2024 The story goes that Amelie asked me for this exhibition a handmade copy of A Wizard Without a Shadow. The original Wizard is DIN A5 (21 x 10.5 cm.), but this had to be in 50×70 cm. However, when she told me that I couldn’t image myself copying or tracing the artwork. I just couldn’t. So, instead of tracing using with some mechanism, I just did another one, similar, based, inspired on the Wizard. The result is quite an impactful ink on canvas drawing in black and white, with many details and dreamy scenes. Rudolph Deconstructed Rudolph Deconstructed, acrylic on canvas, 30×30 cm © Lufo Art, 2024 This artwork is a playful exploration of the technique of acrylic paint on canvas. Basically, I threw together a few elements here and there and painted some paradoxical situations in between. Then, I experimented with the acrylic colours to see what kind of effect I could achieve. However, what do you think of it? Furthermore, if you would like to dive deeper on Rudolph Deconstructed check this page entirely dedicated to it. Upon what Upon What, acrylic on canvas, 30×30 cm © Lufo Art, 2024 Upon What is also an experimentation like Rudolph Deconstructed, but this time I choose to put less elements in game. Indeed, I focused the whole artwork in this infinite staircase, the paradoxical visual effects like M. C. Escher used to do.  Io vivo quasi in ciel… (ma non ci arrivo mai) Io vivo quasi in ciel, oil on canvas, 30×30 cm © Lufo Art, 2024 This, my dear reader, is my very first oil painting! “Io vivo quasi in ciel… (ma non ci arrivo mai)” translates as “I live almost in heaven… (but I never get there)”. The first part is a passage of La Traviata by Giuseppe Verdi, which I was listening to during the creation. Indeed, this inspired me to create a visual paradox of just a few elements. In fact, this is a game of perspective to find where heaven is, because either if you go up or down, you’ll never reach anything but the origin.
