Giancarlo Impiglia's "Night People I" (1984) exemplifies the Italian-born artist's distinctive style, developed after his move to New York in the 1970s. This limited-edition serigraph captures a vibrant social scene with geometric precision and bold color blocking, reflecting Impiglia's modernist influences and keen observation of urban life. The composition features stylized figures in elegant attire, their faces deliberately devoid of individualized features—a commentary on the loss of identity in a society preoccupied with appearance.
Set against a dynamic backdrop of architectural elements and abstract forms, the scene pulses with energy, evoking the glamour and superficiality of high society gatherings. Impiglia's masterful use of color and form creates a sense of movement and interaction among the figures. At the same time, the absence of detailed facial features invites viewers to project their interpretations onto the scene.
This piece, framed in wood, not only serves as a striking visual representation of 1980s aesthetics but also offers a nuanced critique of social dynamics and materialism. Impiglia's work, which gained prominence through exhibitions in New York galleries and participation in the famed Absolut Vodka campaign, continues to resonate with collectors who appreciate art that combines visual appeal with social commentary. less
