Biography
Ambrosio Paolo, after years of preparation, he moved towards painting with a fundamental gestural attitude and developed his own method which took advantage of the immediacy of the gesture-sign of IMAGE-ART.
In the canvas, as in a "court of words", the gesture activates the vibrations that bring into the world a reality suspended in time. The gesture draws its reality, penetrates its secrets and becomes aware of an underlying labyrinth. These gestures do not have in themselves the ambiguity of the gesture since they free themselves, in the dynamics of the work, from the traces of the movement of the hand.
IMAGE-ART is an artistic practice that has used the eye's ability to manage GESTURE since the 1970s. Ambrosio follows GESTURE in the footsteps of the hand movement where an expressive form emerges, a SIGN that gives freedom to GESTURE. In practice, GESTURE activates resources and allows the value of the SIGN to be transposed into the work.
