Critical judgment edited by Prof. Savini Carlo, President of the Italian Critics and of the U.E.C.A.L: «Sandro Sabatini uses the alphabet of colors and images, translating it into significant language; whether they express moods and chromatic impulses or offer landscape views. The pictorial language of Sabatini
has a predominance in the figurativism; this is a neo-figurativism that has clear echoes of the great masters of modern painting, from expressionism to impressionism, to metaphysical symbolism and landscape painting of the French and Roman schools up to Cascella and others, personally modified and interpreted. Currently (seriously terminally ill) the artist testifies with active ability and taste, towards considerable attention to the modern
with leaps in every artistic direction, something not common in the vast audience of colleagues, who generally fossilize in one style...< br />Portraitist, landscape painter, lover of still lifes and... alive, he seems to follow and with success both in criticism and in sales, the taste for colors and signs always in different styles; in fact one of the first things that strikes you in following his exhibitions is the complete diversity between one work and another, which is quite common. Sabatini's works are descriptive, immediately recognizable and endowed with a pleasant colourivism in its shades; we note paintings that are serene at the bottom joyful and very pleasant to the eye in every environment they are placed, almost as if they do not suffer from the different lightings, he executes faithful portraits as evidence of affection and lasting memory, especially where he tries his hand at copies, both of the old ones and of the new artists, in a continuous study, since Sabatini is self-taught. Colors, brushstrokes, luminosity, volumetric perspectives, are the classic ones... always valid and appreciable». The works concerning references in the artistic field to one of the various jobs carried out by Sabatini, namely the military one, are appreciable and well rated. (Carlo Savini).
