Bellezza orientale (Oriental) (2023) Painting by Alessandro Granata

Born in Salerno in 1989, Granata developed a great passion for the figurative arts from an early age. Graduated from the art school in 2008, he attended the Academy of Fine Arts in Naples, began to participate in various group exhibitions even outside his city and his paintings are appreciated by gallery owners and art dealers and private individuals, both in Italy and abroad. In recent years he has received large commissions for sacred works still on permanent display in the churches of the Neapolitan area.
Granata prefers an almost unfinished background to give more prominence to the scene and the face in her works, thus masterfully managing to make the scene alive and engaging, giving detail to the details and creating wonderful chiaroscuro effects. The intensity of the gazes leaves the observer with the burden of telling the story of these women/men, imagining their experience and its implications. The women and the elderly that Granata has painted over time remain among the most appreciated subjects both by private collectors and gallery owners.
