Enrico de tomi - born in venice ( 1912-1983) was immediately forwarded in art a pupil of virgilio guidi, after the war, in-along with other artists such as giulio turcato, he moved to rome where he was a protagonist of the season of the roman avant-guard between the fifties and sixties. Enrico de tomi in his works, seeks the natural encounter,composing a complex mixture of enlarged molecules, and proposes a network of ideological traces made of geometrized places, exhibiting structures of geometric ascendancy in a tormented epidermis of enamticon wrinkles, with knurls, with shaky sponging and drafts of color struggling between the opaque and the glossy between reflections-deflections: encounters between campiture and encrustations occur in his works. Behind his spatial reasoning made of games of sections , of cuts, of transversals, one discovers drafts of pictorial outburst: his painting as physiological pathos, of an anthropological space, becomes personal spatial illogic, which defines the search for abstractionism. As inner events, the mental fruit of a search for spatialist painting, the pictorial energy is felt in its elementary simplification with the simplicity proper to natural substance. On the tradition of abstractionism, he creates his space, understood as a mythical space, set two-dimensionally and with perspective allusions: his paintings limit a torn fragment of the cosmos. In some landscapes with only the sharp, pure sign, without intervention of chiaroscuro, he renders the depth of a luminous atmosphere using the venetian color dictated by his origins. Instinctive and always in turmoil, a participant in the vitality of italian painting, with peaks very close, as pride and impetus, to the great presence of giulio turcato, the work becomes a reflection of his solitary spirit. Alongside turcato himself in the culture of the 1940s among the various currents that flourished in roman painting, the two venetian painters prove restless in that active presence of theirs in the most tumultuous events of italian art. - framed work height: 70 width: 48 this piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker.
