Giancarlo Impiglia
The Witness (After Caravaggio)

2017

About the Item

Part of Giancarlo Impiglia's iconic "camouflage" series, in which, deviating from his signature style, he expresses his classical education, flawless technique, and concerns about the modern world. Oil and gold leaf on panel. Born in Rome, Impiglia moved to New York in the ‘70s, where he established a signature style on the shoulders of Futurism and Cubism, his technical skill underpinning his eclecticism and allowing him to indulge in an appetite for complexity. His work has been exhibited in numerous galleries around the world and is part of prominent collections including that of The Victoria and Albert Museum and the Absolut Art Collection. Three publications are dedicated to his work: Giancarlo Impiglia, Paintings for the Queens & Collected Works (2012), The Art of Giancarlo Impiglia (1995), and Giancarlo Impiglia: Recent Work (1982). With his work only going up in value, this is not an opportunity to be missed.

  • CELLO IN THE SNOW - oil, enamel, glazed ceramic and canvas on panel, textural
    By Eleanor Aldrich
    Located in Signal Mountain, TN
    A cello is held up between the legs of its accompanying musician in a snowy landscape. Snow has collected on the protruding bits of Cello and on the tops of the musician's knees. Though we can't see the face of the musician, we see their bare arms, folding upwards, as if they have buried their face in their hands. -- Building on her previous show, Main Squeeze, which featured bodies pressing through the grid of lawn chairs, in “That Feeling When,” Aldrich expands the excess of materials to large figure paintings...

  • ON THE ICE - Textural figure painting - Oil and Enamel on Canvas Red, Polka-Dot
    By Eleanor Aldrich
    Located in Signal Mountain, TN
    In the series of paintings titled “That Feeling When,” Aldrich expands the excess of materials to large figure paintings and small, overfilled sculptures. Aldrich uses thick materials that protrude from the surface, reminding the viewer that the paintings are not only physical objects in themselves, but also create the illusion of the picture. The work employs a risky excess of material that borders on uncontrollable; becoming metaphoric for barely controlled femininity, the attraction and repulsion of materialism, and the body pressing against constraints. The figures in the paintings are seen from behind or have turned away. The viewer is put in a place of questioning whether they are a voyeur or a co-viewer with the figure of something deeper in the picture plane. The full body paintings of young women based on Nancy Drew...
