Mimmo Paladino ^©  

(Paduli - Benevento, 1948)

Il Paladino is a very versatile painter, sculptor and artist and is one of the leading exponents of the Italian Transavanguardia, an artistic movement theorized and promoted by Achille Bonito Oliva in 1980. In his works he blends figurative elements and artistic references from the most diverse cultural areas. Several works, depicting fragments of figures, heads and hands, are elements of a language that blends space and time, often creating three-dimensional subjects. This work was exhibited in 2008 in an exhibition organized by the Municipality of Rome at the Ara Pacis. The work is accompanied by the publication of the book of the Exhibition, where the work is photographed on page 38. 28 x 28 cm.
