Sunset with the artist – Giacinto Bosco
Giacinto Bosco at Treville Positano – 1st September 2021
Giacinto Bosco’s sculptures will create a dream atmosphere at Treville Positano, in an appointment scheduled for September 1st as part of the aperitifs at sunset.
Protagonist of this Sunset with the artist, Giacinto Bosco narrates with his works many love stories, particularly his passion for the Moon. Born in Sicily in 1956, he moved to Milan to attend Bramante Artistic High School, where Prof. Teruggi encouraged him to develop his artistic talent.
His sculptures, steeped in romanticism and dreaminess, tell the artist’s sensitivity and his journey through a poetic, almost nostalgic dimension.
His pieces are rendered in full relief using historic bronze sculpture techniques and encourage the observer to reflect upon his unique ability to combine historic artisan craft with highly original execution techniques outside the formal historical canons. Figures are accennate and straightforward, and they encourage the cultural investigation and subjective introspection of the works, which communicate both candid lightness and arcane allusion.
His sculptural sensitivity creates a lyrical synthesis and poetic awakening of sensibilities whose meanings seemed to have been lost.
With the perfect setting of the Treville, the sculptures of Giacinto Bosco and their moons, will get lost in the wonderful sky of Positano, and Sunset with the artist – Giacinto Bosco will allow immersion in a fairytale reality in which the presence of the artist will help involvement.
Giacinto Bosco is one of the leading and renowned figurative sculptors in Italy, among those who pursue the 20th century great classical tradition. His sculptures, in which the solidity of bronze is put at the service of the lightness of the feeling of love, often depict lovers who yearn for the moon, keeping it lassoed, who seem to hover while swinging on swings hanging from the sky, or trying balance exercises by holding themselves up on chairs and stairs, climbing ropes His are “small amorous idylls”, as Vittorio Sgarbi wrote, “where the mysterious medium of emotions is resolved in an enchanting plastic language”, as pointed out by Paolo Levi, figures as elementary as they are poignant, from which the solemnity of ancient and primary feelings shines through; the most present is that of human amazement in front of the nocturnal star, which, among many, was sung by poets such as Ariosto, Leopardi and Borges and which inspired musicians such as Beethoven and Debussy, just to name a few, whose works in turn are cultural and traditional models for Bosco himself.
