Characteristics and vita

Nino Perrone is strongly influenced by the city of Bari. He was born in the Italian port city in 1942, studied at the Accademia di Belle Arti di Bari and still lives there today. After graduating, he received numerous prizes (Giorgio Mondadori competition, Arte in Regione), took part in important individual and group exhibitions (Expo Arte in Bari, Foundation Luigi Faccioli in Rome, Spoleto Arte Venice, La grande Exposition Universelle in Paris, International Biennale of Palermo, Biennale in Bari and Metropolitana BIBART, London Exhibition in Miami, Michaelangelo Hall in New York) and collaborated with renowned art galleries (Rizzardi in Milan, Il Parametro in Rome, Salomon August & Algranti in Milan).

Numerous publications on his extensive oeuvre have been written by renowned authors, including Pietro De Giosa, Luigi Paolo Finizio, Guido Falco, Andrea Domenico Baricco, Franco Santamento, Raffaele Nigro, Maurizio Vitello, Salvo Nugnes, Elena Gallini, Vittorio Sgarbi and Philippe Daverio. In 2017, his works were published in Atlante dell'Arte contemporanea.

The current highlights of his career to date are undoubtedly the presentation of his works at the Chamber of Deputies in Rome, the Padiglione Guatemala during the 16th Biennale di Venezia and the Ruart ART KREMLIN in Moscow at the state Vernadsky Museum.

PointillismuS

Perrone's paintings are characterized by the fascinating spectacle of nature, which inspires the quiet contemplative artist. Nature as a source of inspiration in which myriad color combinations swirl around the light. Every detail, every nuance, every vibration fascinates Perrone, awakening his imagination and curiosity. He loses himself in the idea of the whole, from the visible reality to the invisible one of the primordial cosmos, where it all began. Peronne began with playful and ironic figuration and continued to develop in the direction of pointillism. For him, the space of the canvas is the space of nature, which he captures and makes tangible for us. Through his staccato-like short brushstrokes, he unfolds a vibrant color dynamic, a rhythmic flow of colors, often embedded in monochrome backgrounds. Intense counterpoints in strong red, blue and yellow enliven the scenery. Nature is a model for Perrone in terms of beauty, color and light. An emotional, sensual type of contemporary painting that remains in the memory and inspires collectors worldwide. With his infinity of brushstrokes, Nino Perrone transports us to the vast, hilly areas and seascapes around Bari. With a swarm of colors, he stages his space of nature on canvas, transmitting vibrations and impulses, dedicating himself to the mysteries of eternal life. In his works Harmony, Energy, Metamorphosis and Fragments, he lets us feel the warm summer air, inhale aphrodisiac scents and sink into seas of flowers. We immerse ourselves in the sensuality of nature, experience its beauty and transience, the wonderful change of seasons and begin to understand nature as a universe. We recognize the complexity of the system that needs to be preserved. Sustainability at the highest level, preserving for future generations. The surreal as a vision.
