Uno Individuo

PAINTING

Pigments on canvas – “one” upright 120x200 cms – “one” lying 200x170 cms and 200x160 cms – drawing on paper 35x50 cms, year 1998- Picture by Filippo Gallino and Guido Fassio.

“ But in a moment - this is clear as well - we notice that such forms show either completely strawled nudes, reminding death, or better a "deadly" tiredness (see the lying position, the joint relaxation, the limb drop, following the lack of muscular and nervous control) or greatly agitated bodies (see the upright position, where the lower, but especially the upper limbs are wide apart and hands have the fingers outstretched in a meaningful gesture showing surprise and despair).” Abstract out of a review by Pino Mantovani.
