About Alberto Repetti

Clocktower view from Whitehall during the restoration of Westminster Palace in August 2015

2

The work was preceded by numerous sketches, by drawing the objects details which are part of the painting.
I need to know the shape, deeply, in order to obtain a synthesis in the final blur.
The blurring, that there is in the whole picture, focuses in a space that has its center in the clock tower.
My desire is to use it as a lure to encourage the viewer to come closer to the painting, in the center of the painting, to see the composition of each single brush stroke.
Approaching the canvas until the painting does not occupy the entire visual eye space, forcing eyes to seek sharpness that will find only in the stroke of the brush, which is the main protagonist of the artwork.

“Brunch” and “Relief”

The practice is the exercise itself. The result is unmistakably under the eyes of the beholder. Read a blueprint it is to trace its development. I dare say that to watch a design is investigating its evolution more than his final definition.

La pratica è l’esercizio in sè. Il risultato è inequivocabilmente sotto gli occhi di chi guarda. Interpretare un disegno è ripercorrere il suo sviluppo. Oserei dire che guardare un disegno è investigare sulla sua evoluzione più che la sua definizione finale.

Fragmenting work and accost into a homogeneous whole. I have many ideas but no that fully satisfies me. How to convince the viewer to get closer to the work rather than move away?  People should realize the importance to have eyes immersed in the artwork  without another suggestion look around.
I could get the same feeling by grouping several scans of a work, as a temporality “contemporary.”
This is a first step but it is still far.

Frammentare un’opera e raggruppare in un tutto omogeneo. Ho molte idee ma nessuna che mi soddisfi pienamente, sul modo di convincere lo spettatore ad avvicinarsi di più all’opera invece che allontanarsi. Si dovrebbe cogliere l’importanza di avere lo sguardo pieno di un’opera senza altro intorno.
Potrei ottenere la stessa sensazione raggruppando scansioni diverse di un lavoro, come una temporalità “contemporanea” .
Questo è un primo passo ma sono ancora ben lontano..

Biroscape #25, “Remainder”

Be quick, linger and get stuck are the main moments of this artwork. What remains is this:

Wasp Hiding Place.

The contact with the surface and the medium is  hidden in the representation. I almost want to say that it would be interesting to indicate in a work which was the last touch on it.

Utmost care and patience.
These drawings express their full potential when they are executed.

Drawing retains the possibility of a reconstruction of the path followed to accomplish it.

I wish I could do a show where my paintings could not see more than 20 cm distance.

The blur is intentional and is the main part of the painting.
Everything around us is constantly analysis, scientific, philosophical and artistic.
My, simply, want offer a perspective on the impossibility of perceiving the world objectively and its representation can only be blurred.
