Vicine lontananze by Luciano Bonetti

Artwork Description

Original title of the artwork: Vicine lontananze / Close Distances

Alongside the series of works “Window on Time” of 2019, abstractions of figures, places and emotions that flow incessantly before the eye in the course of everyday life, materializing and taking shape through color, here are presented the compositions Vicine lontananze, made between 2020 and 2021, where figurative elements return in the composition to draw attention to the state of separation and distance that we have had to endure in this period of pandemic - distance from affections, from freedom, from our certainties - in an invitation to rediscover what is true and important in existence and in our lives.

Luciano Bonetti's journey of inner research is enriched by a new chapter that is extremely intimate and profound, addressing our personal sphere with great poetry and sensitivity. The nature to which Bonetti refers in his most recent paintings is the symbol of an objective and an aspiration, of the desire to recover and start again, starting from memory in the direction of a future full of possibilities and hope.
