• Lot Description
  SALVATORE GARAU (Italy, 1953). "Centrale idroelectrica", Acrylic on canvas. Signed, dated, titled and located on the back. Measurements: 139 x 139 cm. In this work the author uses an abstract language, based on irregular geometry, with an organic character both in its layout and colors. It is an open style, whose basic characteristic is the conception of the pictorial surface as a whole, as an open field, without limits and without hierarchy. Thus, as we see here, the pictorial forms are the result of a thoughtful composition and experimentation, with an image of gestural character, are not limited to a composition, but go beyond, indicating to the viewer that it is about forms, ideas or suggestions that go beyond the boundaries of the purely pictorial. Italian artist born in Santa Giusta (Sardinia), Salvatore Garau studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence, graduating in 1974. After a first stage dedicated to music, he focused his career on visual art. He held his first solo exhibition in 1984, and since then he has shown his work in various European cities. Also, in 2003 he participated in the Venice Biennale and held an exhibition at the European Parliament (Strasbourg). Six years later he held a major solo exhibition at the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Saint-Étienne (France). He is currently represented at the Museo del Novecento and the Pablleon of Contemporary Art in Milan, the Museum of Modern Art in Bologna, the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Saint-Étienne, the MACAM in Maglione, the Museum of the Italian Embassy in Seoul, the Sala Parpalló in Valencia and other important collections.
