Nino Gasparri (1910-1989) - Mareggiata

ino Gasparri (Bari 1910 – 1989), Mareggiata, 1968. Oil on canvas, with impasti materici. Canvas 48 × 40 cm; dimensions with frame 63 × 53 cm. Signed at the upper left. On the back titled “Mareggiata”, signed and dated 1968. Unique work. The composition translates the theme of the stormy sea into a language that sits on the border between figuration and informality: a large clear form overturns like a wave onto the blue of the sea, against a vivid background of orange and black. The painterly matter is dense and worked, with thick impastos, granular zones and spatula strokes that convey the force and movement of the sea in tempest. Formed in the Emiliano painting tradition, in dialogue with masters such as Carena, Romagnoli and Morandi, Gasparri later arrived at the Roman milieu, where in the fifties and sixties his painting confronted the new realism. In the mature phase his work becomes increasingly dramatic and expressive. His works are housed in the collections of the Accademia di Belle Arti di Bologna. Provenance: private collection, Rome, by family lineage. Conditions: good. Stable craquelure in the thicker impasto areas, coherent with the technique and the period, with no lifting or loss of color. Protective paper on the back partially torn, leaving visible the autograph inscription. Silvered wooden frame with a fabric-covered mat (marie-louise).
