Lease artwork "Verso" by Mauro Trentini with an option to purchase

Mauro Trentini's artistic experience began from the first years of elementary school, lived in Cologna, a small town on the Po in the province of Ferrara, where he was also born on February 2, 1962. The natural predisposition for painting was noticed by teachers of the schools attended by the artist who urged him towards a continuous research and elaboration of techniques and themes of art. And it is this first imprint, this first orientation, which will characterize the intellectual development of the painter, in fact his artistic career is characterized by alternate phases of pictorial expression and study, even prolonged, of art and his great masters. The youthful phase of his experience ended shortly after the twenties, when he had already won a certain audience and a good reputation with his works, which allowed him to present his talent in exhibitions and solo shows.
The following years were characterized by a continuous and incessant search for one's own
artistic personality, but which did not translate into a figurative expression of any kind.
Introspective analysis led him to get to know and measure himself against the great masters of the twentieth century and the picture "The infinite" is a clear homage to De Chirico.
The incessant research produced a new period of work which began in late 2006 and which led to a considerable production of canvases.
Trentini in this period discovers his expressive form, which however does not characterize it in its own artistic peculiarity, but identifies it in the inspiring themes.
The artist continues the continuous research of the youthful years, but with more mature works he expresses his existentialism with different pictorial forms from which the message of a vision of existential suffering still flows.
The work "Memories" highlights all the hardness of existence: the black background, two rows of trees that
they seem to want to identify a road covered by ice, expressed with a cold blue just turned into white by a surreal sun whose rays, not free, seem bent or imprisoned by a metallic force that also prevents the light from being white and disintegrates in colors with cold shades.
The singularity of this work contrasts in its expressive form with another, emblematic in its development and, if we want, stylistically opposed to the first one presented; it is "The imprint of time" where the spectator, placed in front of a window whose Venetian stylistic contours echo a distant past, contemplates an apparently peaceful and romantic sunset, but which implies an impetuosity or a whirlwind coming, rendered by the movement from the top to the bottom of the hues that become increasingly tending to dark in the central part.
A sheet treated with white and black, where a skeletal and surreal hand is painted, seems to be carried by the wind to the left side of the window and accentuates the expressive originality of the artist. Mauro Trentini has since 2006 produced a substantial number of works whose value is continuously appreciated in the numerous artistic events and exhibitions in which he is continually invited to participate.
The numerous commitments, however, do not prevent him from continuing his creative and stylistic research which make him one of the most original and avant-garde artists of this beginning of the third millennium.
