About the Item
This painting is in excellent condition and has only been shown in a gallery setting. A hardbound book on Piccoli's works are included with your purchase.
Pietro Piccoli was born in 1954 in the small town of Montopoli di Sabina in central Italy. At a very early age, he became fascinated with the arts and, at the age of sixteen, was enrolled by his parents in Latina's high school for the arts.
By the age of twenty, Piccoli was off to Rome, which in the early 70's was an exciting place for a young artist. It was a hotbed of new ideas and on the cutting edge of the international art scene. Piccoli immediately immersed himself in this new environment, experimenting with new ideas and absorbing the innovative concepts of the many artists whose studios he frequented and to whom he apprenticed himself. Moreover, for a year or so, he traveled in the north of Italy and visited Paris and Zurich.
The 80's comprised a second period of active experimentation in Piccoli's career. He investigated new mediums and sought new ways of weaving together the major strands of his style, realism and abstraction, visual detail and imagination. Variously, he tried impressionism, expressionism, and fauvism. Within ten years, he had found a definite direction toward the synthesis he was seeking. His colors became brighter, his brushwork more free. Soon he began adding patches of pure abstraction as a sort of "out-of -focus" overlay in front of the pure landscape. These patches serve as a visual relief from the strongly geometric architectural forms. In his most recent works, the subject matter has become incorporated into the abstraction.
He is the definite artist of ‘the Mediterranean World' . The essence of the Mediterranean is color and light; hence, everything in Piccoli's works focuses on these two elements- painting cities, beaches and seas with a compelling blend of realism and abstraction, visual detail and imagination which will ignite your appreciation for the beauty which surrounds.
Piccoli's style moves the viewer with the passionate use of color; depicting warm and silent landscapes, the riches of nature, the charm and fascination of sunsets full of light, the sudden echoes of the sea, the simple architecture of the marine world, the humble fishermen boats, all coming together.

Pietro Piccoli
Pietro Piccoli was born in 1954 in the small town of Montopoli di Sabina in central Italy. At a very young age, he became fascinated with the arts and, at the age of sixteen, was enrolled by his parents in Latina's high school for the arts. At age twenty he pursued a formal artistic career in Rome, the epicenter of creative energy in the 1970's. During this time, he exhibited at important Italian and international exhibitions in cities including Rome, Zurich, Vienna, Paris, Istanbul and Budapest. After exposure to various art, artists and travels Piccoli transitioned into an experimental phase in his art, which allowed him to develop his signature style for which he is internationally recognized today. Piccoli fuses elements of traditionalism and abstraction in his landscapes, seascapes and still life paintings. Influences of impressionism, expressionism and fauvism aided him in the definition of his artistic vision as well. His main subjects include boats at harbor, expansive landscapes with intimate visible villages, adorned Italian balconies and still lifes. Emphasis on bright colors, theatrical lighting and geometric forms enhance the subjects of Piccoli's works. The combination of these three elements result in inherently kinetic art that encompasses the transcendental beauty of the Mediterranean coast.

- America Had TalentBy Pat HobaughLocated in Atlanta, GAThis painting is in excellent condition and has only been shown in a gallery setting. From the artist: "This work depicts a Presidential talent show, with Bill Clinton receiving his scores for his saxophone judges, while Hillary (as a nutcracker) stands looking like a judge as well. The painting is really about two things. First, how we turn politics and campaigns into talent show contests, with the media/television personalities standing in as judges before we even get to the actual election. Secondly, it's called "America had Talent" because we always think past presidents were better than current ones. The Greek vase in the center is a reminder that none of this is new, this type of treatment of leaders and elections has been going on for millennia- (Judgement of Paris). And the hydrangeas, as with all of the hydrangeas in my work, represent the transience of the situation depicted when placed in relevance to overall time. " Pat Hobaugh...Category
