Bruno CroattoStill Life with Buddha and Pomegranates - Painting by Bruno Croatto - 19441944
1944
About the Item
In this work we find the image of the Buddha and several pomegranates, symbolizing fertility.
The choice of combining objects and materials of different nature becomes an unmistakable feature of his style. A taste for the intrinsic qualities of different materials, specifically chosen for their characteristics of gloss transparency and sphericity, not least, the optical precision with which the different surfaces are rendered. Croatto creates images where reality is transformed into a magical and suspended atmosphere.
Bruno Croatto (Trieste 1875-Rome 1948), painter from Trieste, he studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. After the First World War, he came close to "Magic Realism". In 1925 he moved to Rome where he remained until his death. His home/studio is frequented by an elite audience that is also often the protagonist of his portraits. His still lifes embellished with fabrics, jewels and objects from the Far East are glimpses of the bourgeois living rooms of the time.

Bruno Croatto
Bruno Croatto became a pupil of Gabriel Hackl at the Munich Academy of Fine Arts but studied the Impressionists and the great masters of the 15th century. He painted figures, landscapes and flowers but his talent emerged in etchings and aquatints, in which, neglecting the drawing, he seeks only color and chiaroscuro effects. He exhibited in Monaco, Trieste, Paris, Venice, Rome, London, Prague and Vienna. In 1930, he held a personal exhibition at the Camera degli Artisti in Rome with more than 100 works among paintings and etchings. His works are preserved in the Prints Cabinet in the Corsini Museum in Rome, in Valle Giulia and in the Uffizi Gallery and in public collections in New York and England. One of his still life paintings is preserved at the Modern Art Gallery in Milan.

Kristīne Luīze Avotiņa is a young and bright personality whose talent is appreciated not only in Latvia, but also in other parts of the world. Her deep inner experiences and feelings of the soul are not hidden from the eyes of the audience, but are openly and engagingly narrated: about relationships, man and woman, passion, emotions, about experience and connection with nature.
Characters live in Kristine's compositional solutions, where figurative painting and ornament appear. When painting large-format works, she masters the entire format, composition and color of the work, as well as linear drawing.
Kristīne herself emphasizes: "Relationships between nature and people - it has always been a relevant topic in my painting. The more I work on it, the more interesting it seems to me. It is infinite and unending. With paint I refresh the beauty of nature and love on the canvas and I want to show that nature and love are equal in their beauty.
In my works, I always want to show that nature is beautiful and worthy of admiration - a newly blooming water lily, falling leaves from golden trees, a pink sunset sky... This could go on forever..."
