PADUA ART GALLERY displays great works of living contemporary, abstract and figurative artists.
The housed works are unique and unrepeatable, coming from various movements, but, at the same time, they are united by the same matrix: the high level of painting technique, the steady research and the emotions transmitted to the observer.
Figurative works represent scenes of everyday life such as in a café or on the underground. Or big cities and skyscrapers as in Antonio Tamburro's paintings; still lifes enhanced with huge and coloured flowers in front line to contrast the cities' greyness of Gianni Borta. Friedrich Eigner's conceptual paintings outcome from a passion for research and test of new materials: elegant scratches of colour on thin glasses, pure pigments on thick plaster layers composing monochrome schemes of red and black have, at the end, a surprising effect for harmony and aesthetic matches.
Different paintings with engravings on raw jute represent an harmonic fusion between ancient and modern and with elements recalling ancient splendours as Theatre of Pompey, Temple of Bramante, gothic windows, everything matched with bright colours such as turquoise, Pompeian red, and emeran green by Margherita Lipinska, an excellent restorer.
The flagship of the Gallery is the octogenarian Giuseppe Biasio, who has always been faithful to trash painting. His works are an harmonic mix of the most varied materials such as camouflaged materials, casting lead, resins, pieces of wood, torn sails. All these incredible works demonstrate to the observer that nothing can be destroyed at the end, but it flourishes in a emotional, sublime harmonic way.
