Vittore Frattini’s itinerary began in the late Fifties, when he painted the large canvas Fiducia which, in style, is closely bound to existential realism. Naturalism emerges in a subsequent phase, characterised by an abstract linearity, subsequently imposing itself in a new expositive way in which the figurative aspect is finally overcome by an informal pensive expressionism. During the Seventies, Frattini reaches a linearity that develops further into an in-depth study of increasingly fundamental horizontal and vertical geometries, in a sort of constant questioning of the readability of chromaticism. In this typology of signage, lengthily pondered upon and refined, this artist not only achieves bi-dimensional solutions but also, during a more recent phase, plastic experimentations with an impact both strongly emotive and poetic.
