Attilio Rossi, who was also an important graphic designer and cultural promoter, has explored painting from abstract art to hyperrealism, reaching the frontiers of the most advanced figurative art. In the final period of his career, to which the work presented here belongs, his docks, still lifes, and self-portraits gave way to the great cycle of metaphysical painting.
Presented here is a surreal vision of the Milan Cathedral, above which is projected the figure of the crucified Christ (albeit in a reclining position), the Ecce Homo of the Passion.
The framed painting comes from the Campari corporate collection.
