Angelina Gualdoni biography and artwork
Angelina Gualdoni born 1977 in San Francisco, California, lives and works in Chicago and New York. Angelina Gualdoni richly nuanced paintings, six of those who composed his impressive solo debut "Demo," explore the notions of progress and decline by submitting images of utopian architecture in a state of ruin.
These works, all acrylic and oil on canvas, paper pavilion demolition Horizons a ride on the track and multi-media exhibition based on conceptions of the future. Built in 1983 as part of Future World at Disney Epcot Center in Orlando, was destroyed in 1999 and later replaced by another tourist attraction. The pavilion, a circular structure with a steel frame, ie for the artist, emblematic of the modernist faith in social transformation achieved through technological means. It is also a symbol of unfulfilled dreams of a future that never came to pass. However, he sees something Gualdoni recovery in the rubble, as shown by the formal and conceptual contradictions at play in each of his compositions carefully articulated. This building idealist is represented from a slightly biased viewpoints that give the appearance of being both far and near, and in various stages of decomposition.
The structure supports a mutilated in ruins silhouetted against the sky chemicals like wild brambles. Midway is part of a series of recent works that represent a changing world, prey to the lack of attention evil of mankind. abandoned buildings are engulfed in the background on which was once proudly subordinate partners in a dialogue between the natural and made by man over which they have ceded control. The role of chance is evident both in the field of painting and art. Leaks, spills and stains to create a force of abstraction, that threatens to devour what is left of the image representation. Nocturne portrays an abandoned shopping mall in the U.S. Midwest, which is through Internet such as Midway and then in slow, and visited by the artist in person. No cost or subject to prolonged litigation, which have been marginalized by society and abandoned for all but the occasional package of wild dogs or thrill seeking teenagers. They are here presented as the limbo territories, modern ruins vulnerable to the processes of entropic nature of recovery and recovery. Under a dark, threatening sky, trees and weeds surround and fill the buildings to exert pressure on their physical structure, while a coat of paint is filtered served as bloody entrails in the foreground.
Praca dos Tres Powers is a great place, awesome in the center of Brasilia, the political capital of Brazil. Built between 1956 and 1960 to a design by visionary architect Oscar Niemeyer, and advertised as a milestone in contemporary urban planning, the city has come to be seen as a terrible failure utopian. No function, the soul-numbing, and inhospitable to trafffic human, today stands as a dated retro icon and a symbol of the death of modernism. Gualdoni perfectly captures this gap, portraying a vast expanse of barren sky pedestrian plaza on the deserted, empty but for a salesman's car dropped popcorn. This is very clear, is elsewhere, and the future is one of uncertainty low. Working from his own photographic documentation, Gualdoni suburban architecture describes a sad state of neglect. Claimed by nature, structures assume a life of its own as remnants of failure and unfulfilled expectations. In the continuing slow, weeds and saplings in the open atrium of a concrete high-rise building bathe in the light of a momentary Cloudbreak, evoking feelings of nostalgia and otherworldliness and hinting, perhaps, the possibility of a brighter future to come. A similar sense of palpable excitement contained but saturates the other works of artists presented here.
Conclusions:
richly nuanced paintings Angelina Gualdoni, six of which consists of his impressive solo debut "Demo," explore the notions of progress and decline by presenting images of the architecture utopian in a state of ruin.
