About the Item

Pastelli su carta. Firmato e datato in basso a destra. Al retro presente cartiglio con il titolo ed etichetta della Galleria d'arte Bolzani di Milano. Antonio Mancini fu un pittore di matrice verista, formatosi alla scuola napoletana di Morelli e Palizzi e successivamente a Parigi. Si dedicò prevalentemente alla ritrattistica e alle scene di genere di gusto popolare o anedottico, ma mentre in un primo periodo fu vicino al naturalismo ottocentesco che lo portò a ritrarre figure popolari permeate di tristezza (i suoi scugnizzi), in un periodo successivo cominciò a sperimentare tecniche differenti, ricorrendo a vivi guizzi di luce, posti sulla tela in grumi di colore violento e accese colate, arrivando anche all'utilizzo di materiali extrapittorici, come vetri colorati, e proponendo figure agitate, a volte in fantasiosi travestimenti, espressione del suo forte disagio psichico. Questo disegno, cha appartiene alla produzione più tardiva, presenta un volto di anziana donna, (ciociara per titolazione), raffigurata di profilo e contornata da sprazzi di colori che creano un alone sfumato e vivace. L'opera è presentata in cornice coeva (con piccole mancanze).

    Urbex is the English acronym for urban exploration and is an activity that consists of searching for and locating abandoned infrastructure with the goal of visiting, photographing and conveying its contents, with particular involvement of methodologies from geography, anthropology, sociology to cultural studies. Her works have been in the past approached to the works of Anselm Kiefer (b. 1945) and Giovanni Battista Piranesi (1720-1770), but in Gullotta's paintings the absence of color makes the spaces particularly ethereal, allowing them to be ideally lifted to new places and to new life. An artist of international caliber who has decided to entrust her return to her homeland to Almach Art Gallery in Milan, while maintaining connections with important galleries, such as Marlborough Fine Art in London and Galerie Koch in Hanover.
