Crazy Horse, Pencil Fat by Giuseppe Colin, 1990
About the Item
Beautiful piece of Italian painter Giuseppe Colin. The Inspiring reason is the famous Anghiari battle of Leonardo da Vinci.
Giuseppe Colin:
Was born in the Abruzzo region, in the town of Montebello sul Sangro in the province of Chieti in 1954.
For some years he attended the Institute of Art in Rome. While rejecting its heavy academic dogmatism he immersed himself in his studies and, struck by the great master of the past, recovered their message and transported it onto large canvases, where the value of time is transmuted into emotions of a surrealist savour.
Surrealism was in fact for Colin a transitory phase of formation, during which he succeeded in refining the technique necessary for getting his creative processes started.
Later on he found himself experimenting and pursuing a new and very personal path that led him to Hyperrealism
He has presented his works in important exhibitions both in Italy and abroad. In fact he lived, from 1978 through 1983, in various foreign countries, among which South America and the United States, bringing his artistic maturation to fulfillment.
The teachings on perspective, the technical notion of color, the aware reinvention of the terms proposed by a still life, by a simple landscape and by a study of man and horse lie at the basis of Colin’s creative impulse. Of course mixed with all this there is the felicitous intuition of detail as background for the more symbolic.
In 1992 he was called on by the Italian Prime Minister’s office to exhibit at the palace of Arts in the Seville Expo 1992, together with other Italian artists in a showing entitled “Some paths of Contemporary Art in Italy”.
In 1993, in the Great Hall of the University of Rome’s “La Sapienza” campus, he was awarded a Gold Medal for his portrait painting: the Foyer prize.

- "Christmas Stars" by Guido Borgianni. Italy, 1960Located in Budapest, HUGuido Borgianni was born in New York on June 11, 1915, to Florentine Roberto Borgianni, a leather merchant, and Sara Herreshoff, who belonged to one of the wealthiest families in the United States and became a legend in the construction of the racing boats that also participated in and won the America's Cup. Guido was not even a year old when, once his parents' marriage had foundered, his father brought him back to Florence. Of Guido Borgianni's extraordinary gifts as a draftsman and painter, Galileo Chini, his neighbor, noticed, and he worked to see that talent refined. Thus Borgianni attended the Academy of Fine Arts under Felice Carena, a strict teacher but one who knew how to appreciate the qualities of his pupils. In the first part of his life he signed his works in black. Then, when he became a pointillist, he began to use red. Among his great admirers were Alessandro Parronchi and Oskar Kokoschka, who was captivated by Borgianni's paintings during his Florentine stay in 1949. Soffici, Saetti, Malaparte, Montale, Pratolini, and Cesare Zavattini, the screenwriter of Vittorio De Sica and Italian neorealism, all liked him very much, finding him "as beautiful as a Corot." In 1946 he exhibited at the Quadriennale in Rome. After his marriage to Simonetta Avila in 1954, his activities were enlivened by travel: in 1955 to Venice, in 1957 to Paris, from 1958 to 1962 around Italy, in 1964 to Spain, in 1971 to New York and Barbados Islands. In 1950 he was awarded a prize at the Mostra Nazionale del Fiorino in Florence, and in 1956 he was appointed Academician of the Accademia delle Arti del Disegno in Florence. In 1957 he was awarded First Prize at the Portrait Exhibition at Dante's House in Florence. Upon his death, deep condolences were expressed by the president of the Florence City...Category
