ProfessionalProduct description
Lithograph depicting a still life with a jacket, created by Renato Guttuso in the 1960s. Width 104 cm, height 88 cm including frame. Renato Guttuso (Bagheria, December 26, 1911 – Rome, January 18, 1987) was one of the most important and representative figures of 20th-century Italian art. A prominent painter of Realism, his work is characterized by strong political and social commitment, intense expressiveness, and a vibrant use of color. Born in Bagheria, Sicily, to a family of wealthy landowners, Guttuso showed a predisposition for drawing and painting from a young age. His training was largely self-taught, although he briefly attended the studio of painter Domenico Quattrociocchi in Palermo. The study of great masters of the past, from those of the Italian Renaissance to 19th-century French realists, was crucial to his development. In the 1930s, he moved to Milan, where he came into contact with the artistic and intellectual circles revolving around the "Corrente" movement, a group of artists who opposed the conformism of the Fascist regime and promoted socially engaged art connected to social reality. Guttuso was a staunch anti-fascist and joined the Italian Communist Party. During World War II, he participated in the Roman Resistance. His political and civic commitment is constantly reflected in his work. In the post-war period, Guttuso became one of the leading exponents of Italian Realism, an artistic movement that aimed to represent social reality and the living conditions of the popular classes. His painting became increasingly intense and dramatic, with an expressive use of color and a strong emotional charge. Guttuso received numerous international accolades, and his works are exhibited in the most important museums worldwide. He continued to paint until his death in Rome in 1987.
