Rudi Cotroneo is an example of an artist equipped to examine how history is constructed and interpreted through the making of paintings which are intellectually challenging and visually seductive. The artist’s juxtaposition of references from a broad and eclectic range of subjects is reflected in his transposition of the collage technique to canvas. Cotroneo also perceives the connections between art history, music, politics, everyday life and personal experience, which he intimates with a remarkable lightness of touch. In Cotroneos practice the medium of painting is not only examined and celebrated in terms of its history and legacy; Cotroneo demonstrates the enduring contemporary relevance of painting as a way of communicating how we experience the world in which we live. On the painted surface Cotroneo creates a magnificent pluralism that refracts and collides the memory of the past with future recollections of the present. The subjects of his paintings are always physically absent, portrayed through depictions of the environments that they might have occupied. Their invisibility heightens the mystery and artifice of the scene but also removes the most recognisable aspect of figuration from works that ultimately communicate something that goes beyond depiction or language. Much more than the sum of their very disparate parts, Cotroneos paintings make an uncompromising claim for the continuing tradition of the medium.

About this artwork: Classification, Techniques & Styles

Oil

Paint consisting of pigments bound with linseed oil or carnations. The traditional technique consists of superimposing layers of paint increasingly rich in oil for a solid and durable hanger.

Figurative

Figurative and colorful painting having taken the liberty of including all forms of art without border of cultural genre and geographic origin, without hierarchy of values between high and subculture.

Technic Painting

Painting is an art form of painting on a surface by aesthetically applying colored fluids. Painters represent a very personal expression on supports such as paper, rock, canvas, wood, bark, glass, concrete and many other substrates. Work of representation or invention, painting can be naturalistic and figurative, or abstract. It can have narrative, descriptive, symbolic, spiritual, or philosophical content.

Through his art, he seeks to unravel the complex dynamics that are shaping our world, often questioning the established norms and narratives that define our reality.

Rudi's canvases are windows into a world where tranquility prevails, offering viewers a chance to escape the noise and chaos of the contemporary era. His paintings possess an uncanny ability to evoke a sense of peace and reflection, inviting us to pause and contemplate the deeper currents of our existence.
