Detailed description
Picture "AND EARTH WILL REACH TO INFINITY LIKE BEFORE GALILEO (ZAHARA SOFT)" (Unique piece)
Salustiano is a master of portraiture, both painted on canvas and paper. The Seville-born artist paints his models in the traditional manner against monochrome backgrounds so that the viewer's attention is focused on the person portrayed. They stand alone and confront the viewer with an enquiring gaze, encouraging a silent dialogue. Just as the works show the persons turned in on themselves in a meditative pose, the pictures are magically attractive and invite the sensual marvelling at these almost unearthly beautiful beings.
Unique piece. Natural pigments and acrylic resin. Signed on the back. Unframed. Size 100 x 78 cm.
About Salustiano
Salustiano (born in 1965) is a master of portraiture on canvas and paper.
The Seville-born artist paints his models in the manner of the old masters – in front of monochrome backgrounds so that the viewer's attention is concentrated on the sitter. As they stand alone, they confront the viewer with an enquiring gaze and encourage a silent dialogue.
In the same way that the works show the persons in a meditative pose, the pictures themselves have a magical attraction and invite the viewer to marvel at these almost unearthly beautiful beings.
Salustiano studied painting at the Academy of Fine Arts in his native city and is now an internationally successful artist.
A one-of-a-kind or unique piece is a work of art that has been personally created by the artist. It exists only once due to the type of production (oil painting, watercolours, drawing, etc.).
In addition to the classic unique pieces, there exist the so-called "serial unique pieces". They present a series of works with the same colour, motif and technique, manually prepared by the same artist. The serial unique pieces are rooted in "serial art", a type of modern art, that aims to create an aesthetic effect through series, repetitions and variations of the same objects or themes or a system of constant and variable elements or principles.
In the history of arts, the starting point of this trend was the work "Les Meules" (1890/1891) by Claude Monet, in which for the first time a series was created that went beyond a mere group of works. The other artists, who addressed to the serial art, include Claude Monet, Piet Mondrian and above all Gerhard Richter.
