Espoir de la Rencontre, 2024

Albino Palamara  

Contemporary Abstract Expressionist acrylic and oil on canvas by Italian artist Albino Palamara. Signed to the reverse. Title: Espoir de la Rencontre.

A strikingly colourful and energetic Abstract Expressionist work. An explosion of colour and forms erupt onto the canvas. Out of this emerge two abstracted figures their heads inclined towards one another. The colours are bright and hopeful inspired by the first meeting of the couple. Not only are the forms bold and strong but there is great texture to the brushstrokes giving a lovely energy to the painting.  A romantic and thoroughly positive painting to lift the spirit.

The artist Albino Palamara was born in the cradle of Magna Graecia, in Africa (RC) in 1966 and, at a very young age, he moved with his family to Zagarolo.

A multifaceted artist, Albino Palamara has many artistic talents: simultaneously painter, sculptor, graphic designer, mosaicist, illustrator and designer.

Thanks to the family influence rich in innate artistic talent and after having successfully attended the art 'high school' in Rome, he began working as an artist with his particularly unique trait of aesthetics and colour.

Through the use of the most disparate materials, which are not just recycled but represent the process of collecting, repurposing and then offering to others, similar to the path between life, death and the figurative rebirth of Greek tragedy, he manages to capture the deeper aspects of post-modern man between a past rich in human history and a future that is still nebulous and full of unknowns, in clear provocation towards today's consumer society.
