Lot 34:
Description
Signed Giancarlo Impiglia, Figural Pencil Study on Paper, circa 1990’s
Giancarlo Impiglia, (Italian/American, born 1940). Figural pencil study on paper, circa 1990’s. Signed in pencil lower right.
Born in rome, Giancarlo Impiglia moved to new york in the 70’s, where he established a signature style on the shoulders of futurism and cubism. His work is a critique of society’s preoccupation with materialism and superficiality, and beneath this façade lies the true meaning of his work. The figures therefore become an extension of his critique, acting as a representation of society, and the very act of creating beautiful works and their content are united by a singular, powerful vision.
His work has been exhibited in numerous galleries around the world and is part of prominent collections including that of the victoria & albert museum and the Absolut art collection. Three publications are dedicated to his work: Giancarlo Impiglia, Paintings for the Queens & Collected Works (2012), The Art of Giancarlo Impiglia (1995), and Giancarlo Impiglia: Recent Work (1982).
20 1/4" high x 17" wide.
