Aristide Gattavecchia
Aristide Gattavecchia was a painter and sculptor of the 1900s, obtaining important recognitions in both artistic forms (the most relevant was the "Silver Dragon" International Prize for Sculpture obtained in 1963).
Its production goes from 1947 to 1994.
He dealt with powerful themes such as that of violence (of war), incommunicability and loneliness.
And again the themes of a society that changes rapidly and does not know how to deal with and organize mutations appropriately: ecology, savings, consumerism.
And finally, more current content than ever, such as homosexuality and discrimination.
He investigated the human soul, pushing himself to raw and more intimate observation.
Aristide Gattavecchia has made existentialism his most distinctive reason for being.
An investigation into man, which goes beyond the phenomenological aspects to delve into a deeper knowledge of the subject.
A knowledge aimed at his most hidden world, at the very reasons of his existence. For this reason his works fluctuate in a surreal dimension which is nothing but pure subconscious.
Gattavecchia's subjects live in a decontextualized space, they are trembling bodies emptied of any physiognomic characteristic, of any plastic value.
The one described by the painter from Cesena seems to be a situation of existential solitude, an impossibility of communication and sharing, a state of being for which Gattavecchia has found an extraordinarily empathic and eloquent formal guise.

" Grazie al giornalista Vincenzo Di Micco di @Telenostra per lo splendido servizio sul progetto I Narratori del Nostro Tempo, che ho avuto il piacere di ideare, curare e portare avanti insieme all'eminente voce di Vittorio Sgarbi.
Le opere e il percorso degli artisti contemporanei italiani che ho sottoposto alla sua attenzione sono stati commentati dopo averne letto e appreso, attraverso un’attenta disamina, il vissuto e il quotidiano.
Visioni e sensibilità diverse qui vengono espresse mettendo in luce i tratti distintivi degli artisti che attraverso la voce di Vittorio Sgarbi vengono accreditati come “I Narratori del Nostro Tempo”.
È per me motivo di gioia e orgoglio sapere che questa ristretta cernita di artisti contemporanei siano adesso da lui presentati al vasto pubblico che lo segue e lo ascolta mentre parla di loro, proprio come quando io lo ascoltavo parlare di Van Gogh, Gauguin, Picasso e nasceva in me l’amore per la narrazione dell’arte.

Triennale di Roma
Musei di San Salvatore in Lauro, Piazza di San Salvatore in Lauro, Roma, RM, Italia
L'artista Gattavecchia esporrà una sua opera "La Passeggiata", in occasione della Triennale di Roma 2023.
" I “Musei di San Salvatore in Lauro” del Pio Sodalizio dei Piceni, ospiteranno l’edizione 2023 della manifestazione che accoglierà e celebrerà l'arte italiana ed il suo mutamento in questo ventennio.
L’edizione 2023 della manifestazione ragionerà sui concetti di differenza e finesse, affrontandoli dal punto di vista di ogni artista e mirando a svelare – tramite una personale memoria biografica – il profilo più intimo dell’esistenza individuale e l’importanza delle relazioni. Paure, mostri, miracoli, speranze e folgorazioni saranno quelle esperienze personali in grado di generare nuovi circuiti di energie, attingendo a diverse fonti di spiritualità.
Superato il significato di racconto visivo, l’Esposizione Triennale di Arti Visive a Roma 2023 metterà in scena la narrazione di una grande biografia non scritta, dove ogni opera conserverà il significato di memoriale e testimonianza in grado di travalicare i concetti temporali di nascita o morte."
