A perception of more and more flowing images, joined in connection with each other and inscribed upon wide pictorial surfaces broaden in space which foster the ever-central artistic themes of Roberto Bosco’s research and visual poetics. His most recent creations retrace and renew the continuum of a long lasting journey animated by an intense and constant creative tension.
His complex and rich literary and philosophical education finds expressive strength in an esthetic idea according to which the mind should always own all the lightness and vigorous immediacy of its most genuine and authentic meanings, at least in its projection within the pictorial art or, better still, within the visual arts.
Emotionally captivating works which acquaint us with themselves through a chromatic crystallization and materialization of a magnificent and at the same time fragile humanity, rendered through that singular wandering gait among surreal glares and evanescent (…)typical of unreal metropolis; views of a humane and psychological condition of the existence which we find truly actual and definitely familiar in the most intimate perception of a common feeling reflecting ourselves day by day.
Bosco never wastes the contents and the essence of his own reflection and consideration of the reality of our times, so that every philosophical and existential analysis takes its shape exactly to the extent that the pictorial act becomes pure thought in visual form.
The penetrating and lucid observation of the human reality surrounding us releases itself, vibrating, in new synergies, in which the dialogue between painting and poetry evolves elevating itself, in its highest keys.
Careful to seize the sign of the times and of the perceivable repercussions on the human soul.
The certainty of a need to combine every aesthetical process done through art with the most deep roots of the most recent philosophical and historical thought becomes now more strong.
A vision of life and of its most eminent thinkers has always represented the starting-point for stylistic solutions and choices such as those we can now observe in the existing creations.
Here we find the encounter and the synthesis of the most excellent artistic experiences ripen and proposed again in a completely new perspective for the dimension of pictorial fields with which he never had confronted and related himself.
The theme of the man and the city is essential and goes along with Bosco in his latest executions becoming unconditioned protagonist as opposed to the past.
A connection with the urban context which comes to light more stressed and striking, as much as to magnify the reflection of a human condition more and more impressive, yet unstable: floating in metropolitan spaces once temples for the human ambition, now reduced to more and more inconsistent and crumble Cartesian axis, backdrops to the most lucid consideration of our destiny.
Works which stand out in style through vigorous and gestural color drafts, extended and spread in whirling chromatic flights. They enclose the most intimate spiritual tensions that belong to the memory itself of Roberto Bosco’s work in every instant of his long lasting activity, as much of a precise idea of art as an act of conscience of man in respect of his time.
