AT THE SEMAFORE by Renato Criscuolo. The urban theme has always been a source of inspiration for Renato Criscuolo, a great observer of daily life and the spaces that surround us. "At the Traffic Light" is a crude, but at the same time deeply intimate, representation of the daily chaos of a big city like Naples and the traffic that characterizes a metropolis. with a skillful use of color and decisive brushstrokes, Criscuolo gives a sense of movement to the subjects portrayed, heedless of everything around them and attentive only to reach their destination as soon as possible. The colors are intense, with a predilection for pastel, are put vigorously on the canvas, giving three-dimensionality and life to the painting. The painting of Renato Criscuolo, a Neapolitan artist and undisputed master of contemporary art, is idea, sensation, feeling. Criscuolo models color and at the same time shapes our emotion through the multifaceted play of the senses, creating intermediations that move from visual perception and then cross over into other sensory realms that are only seemingly less tangible yet compelling and swift. In front of a Criscuolo painting, our looking is amplified to the point of perceiving scents, sounds, silences, tastes, misplacements of the soul, joyful motions, emotional intermittences, nostalgic and sometimes untamable, which reveal the painter's sovereign intimacy and visceral mastery of the canvas. The painting measures 60 x 80 cm.
