Tullio Pericoli

About

„…In fact, it would be wrong to speak of it as landscape painting. Pericoli did not draw inspiration from Claude, Constable or the Impressionists. Rather, gazing in perspective or from above, he reduces plots of land, tiny plowed fields, woods, hills and skies to endless variations on a patchwork that he tones down into successive abstractions; and yet, while abstracting, he questions the material he explores. Gradually we discover that his landscapes from visions become dreams, and perhaps, as in this exhibition, we have to see them all together to follow the reveries of this interpreter of the face of the earth." Umberto Eco (please see complete text in a PDF further down)
