About the Item

Marco Silombria - Eros on a Dolphin, from the "Dionysian" series Textured painting on paper, signed and dated '90 Size: approx. 100cm x 72cm Condition: a small tear in the upper part of the paper, not affecting the painted area. Some small humidity stains. A winged, naked figure, launched across the back of a dolphin, floats against a black background that directly evokes Greek red-figure pottery. The body, sensual and assertively drawn, reflects the freedom of an artist who absorbed both advertising design and Olympian imagery. Silombria draws on Greek mythology with the postmodern awareness of its theatricality, carnality, and narrative power. His line is sharp and essential, celebrating the male figure as an icon, where classical heritage intersects with pop legacy. This work on paper belongs to the "Dionysian" series, linked to Silombria's ceramic production in Albissola during the 1980s. The dark background, central figure, and dynamic energy echo his sculptural works, united by a shared tension between eros and form. Signed lower right and dated '90. From the artist's studio, directly through the heirs.
