Cosmic essence

author

Enrico Prampolini

description

Mediums: oil, canvas.
Location: private collection.

The work indicates the breakdown of the artist with Futurism. Instead of speed and technical innovations, Prampolini pays more attention to the mysteries of the cosmos and the Universe, which became his favourite topic for several decades. He presented the essence of space in the form of smooth abstract lines flowing one into another and creating a feeling of slowly swirling substance. Using a bright contrasting colour, the artist tried to recreate the harmony of the Universe and influence the feelings and emotions of the audience.
