Carlo Maria Mariani Art

Italian, b. 1931
Carlo Maria Mariani, born on September 15, 1931, in Rome, Italy, is a distinguished contemporary artist known for his fusion of classical traditions with modern conceptualism. Trained at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Rome under notable mentors such as Giorgio de Chirico and Renato Guttuso, Mariani has developed a multifaceted practice spanning painting, drawing, sculpture, and mixed media installations. His work, characterized by meticulous attention to detail, luminous colors, and evocative imagery, often delves into themes of classical mythology, history, and the human form while incorporating contemporary elements. Garnering international recognition since the 1960s, Mariani has exhibited his art extensively worldwide, earning prestigious awards like the Gold Medal for Painting from the President of the Italian Republic. Today, based in Rome, Mariani continues to captivate audiences with his thought-provoking creations, cementing his legacy as one of Italy's most influential contemporary artists.

'Girl in Red', Guggenheim, LACMA, Rome, Academy of Fine Arts, Venice Biennale
By Carlo Maria Mariani
Located in Santa Cruz, CA
Signed upper right, 'C. Mariani' for Carlo Maria Mariani (Italian, 1931-2021) and dated 1959. Framed dimensions: 22.5 x 1.5 x 17.5 inches A native of Rome, Carlo Mariani first studied there at the Academy of Fine Arts where he was influenced by the prevailing styles of Hyper-Realism and Conceptualism. In 1994, he moved to New York City where he began to paint figural landscapes in a traditional, neo-classical style. The 1990s brought Mariani wide recognition and numerous honors, as he represented Italy three times at the Venice Biennale. Additionally, in 1998, he received the prestigious Antonio Feltrinelli Award for lifetime achievement in painting. Mariani continues to be best known for his refined and painterly, Renaissance technique. He was a central figure in Rome’s avant-garde in the 1970s and is widely regarded as an influential forerunner of 1980's Postmodernism. He achieved an international reputation, beginning in the early 1980s, for his arcane and, often, controversial paintings...
