“Painting Renato Santini expresses the constant and deep research on the feeling that governs the laws of existence. E ‘a sentiment that is expressed through the triumph of life over screaming drama of the events of human affairs and the transience of nature tamed by the laws of the biological cycle expressed through drawing, oil painting el’acquerello. Here’s roots grubbed up their canes river bed alluvial processes and objects that belonged to man became waste as no longer useful, returned to applause from the storms, inspire a sense of poetic Santini that flows to the sea and the infinite the homeland in which the artist discovered hidden in the innermost feelings and intimate nature of the subjects represented. The cinch battered by the water becomes, the artist’s paintings, a sailboat in the wind or grotesque, but also dolls, broken chairs and gutted, empty shells of molluscs, the remains of marine equipment stimulate the imagination of the artist who, for the intimate nature, he reinterprets the original dignity by giving them the chance to redeem himself from a preordained outcome vital. His painting style passing resolutions of ancestry for the imposition of metaphysical atmospheres foreignizing subject to suspension and that sense of loneliness and the desire of osmosis between self-consciousness and cosmic consciousness. His poetic visions are characterized by the diffuse light, colors leached, but founded the roots of which remains vianesco Expressionism, from the 60s onwards, dramatic sense of life, sense of panic that proscenium Santini turns to the results optimistic of the elaborate, in confidence and love for life.

E ‘was also focused attention on the techniques used by the artist: you can admire the work done in pencil, oil, tempera, pastels and watercolors in addition to rare collage. “Enrico Frediani
