Modern Painting P. Carena Oil on Cardboard Italy 1950s-1960s - Philosopher

Features

Philosopher

Artist:  Primo Carena (1910-1989)

Artwork title:  Filosofo

Subject:  Human Figures

Artistic technique:  Painting

Technical specification:  Oil on Cardboard

Description : Filosofo

Oil on cardboard. Signed lower right. Coming from a private collection in Pavia. The painting proposes a subject taken up several times by Primo Carena, both with groups of several characters inserted in a landscape, and with a solitary figure as appears in this painting, which belongs to the production of the 1950s. The man on the beach, in the seated pose leaning with his elbow on a marble capital, and in the cloth resting on his legs, recalls the elderly character sitting in a work by De Chirico, the Salute to the Argonauts, and well underlies the reference to painting metaphysics that the painter from Pavia wanted to express in his figure paintings of the 1950s and 1960s. The work is presented in a frame.

Additional Information

Artist: Primo Carena (1910-1989)

Primo Carena was born in Fossarmato (Pavia) in 1910, into a large and poor family, spending his childhood in the Pavia countryside. Enrolled by his father in the technical school of Pavia, he abandoned it in 1927 to dedicate himself to painting, starting to attend the Pavia Civic School of Painting, where Kiernerk, Sorgato, Soriga taught in those years. In 1930 he participated in the Lauzi Prize, winning second place, and in the same year he participated in the 1st Pavia Trade Union Exhibition, an event in which he continued to participate in its subsequent editions. In 1934 he created his first public work: the fresco at the elementary schools of Certosa di Pavia. In 1936 he moved to Milan where he came into contact with the artists of Bar Giamaica (Carrà, Tosi, Manzù..) In 1938 he created a fresco for the Prefecture of Pavia. Between '42 and '43 he worked on the cycle of frescoes in the Forlanini Chapel of the San Matteo Hospital. In the same years he was present in numerous collective and personal exhibitions: in particular in 1948 he participated in the XXIV Venice Biennale with Melograni and in 1951 at the VI Quadrennial in Rome with PEferia. In PAvia he also created a PAla depicting San Siro for the bishop's chair in the Cathedral. In 1965 he bought a house on the outskirts of Pavia, returning to live there permanently in 1983. Primo Carena died in Pavia in 1989.

Artistic technique: Painting

La pittura è l'arte che consiste nell'applicare dei pigmenti a un supporto come la carta, la tela, la seta, la ceramica, il legno, il vetro o un muro. Essendo i pigmenti essenzialmente solidi, è necessario utilizzare un legante, che li porti a uno stadio liquido, più fluido o più denso, e un collante, che permetta l'adesione duratura al supporto. Chi dipinge è detto pittore o pittrice. Il risultato è un'immagine che, a seconda delle intenzioni dell'autore, esprime la sua percezione del mondo o una libera associazione di forme o un qualsiasi altro significato, a seconda della sua creatività, del suo gusto estetico e di quello della società di cui fa parte.
