Antonio Sannino, 1959 | Abstract /Cityscape painter



Antonio Sannino was born in Naples in 1959. He lives and works in Naples and Rome.
He is been focusing for years in portraying "landscapes". Sannino has been able to create new representations of the landscape, by searching new framing, re-drawing the space and its contents. He uses his camera to catch the best light in his pictures, that moment when everything seems to be frozen and timeless. His sea surfaces do not only reproduce water but they emphasize the transparency and light.

Paul Gauguin | Still life



  • "L'arte è un'astrazione: spremetela dalla natura sognando di fronte ad essa e preoccupatevi più della creazione che del risultato".

  • "When the physical organism breaks up, the soul survives. It then takes on another body".

Pierre-Auguste Renoir | Stile artistico

Renoir è stato uno degli interpreti più convinti e spontanei del movimento Impressionista.
Artista prodigiosamente prolifico, con all'attivo ben cinquemila tele e un numero altrettanto cospicuo di disegni e acquerelli, Renoir si è distinto anche per la sua poliedricità, tanto che possiamo distinguere numerosi periodi nella sua produzione pittorica.

È lo stesso Renoir, in ogni caso, a parlare del suo metodo di fare arte:

«Dispongo il mio soggetto come voglio, poi mi metto a dipingerlo come farebbe un bambino. Voglio che il rosso sia sonoro e squillante come una campana, quando non ci riesco aggiungo altri rossi ed altri colori finché non l'ottengo.
