Sammlerstück-Beschreibung

This work by Arlati donated to the Hospice is entitled Blanco (White). It recalls the dazzling white effect created by the thick coats of lime whitewash applied every year to freshen and disinfect cottage walls in the Spanish islands. Layer upon layer of whiteness, cracked and worn by sun and wind, revealing the underlying traces of the past; beneath the surface are other colours, other stories, other landscapes. Lines of shadow and light are created by the sun, remaining fixed in the whiteness, that same whiteness of the walls of Ibiza where the artist has expressed all his energy and poetic passion. A vibrant intense medium, full of strength and radiance, that seems to invite us to slide gently within to become absorbed in the light.

Mario Arlati: Capturing Light and Texture on Ibiza’s Canvas

Milan-based Mario Arlati is a contemporary Italian artist born in 1947, whose distinctive approach to painting—characterized by textured surfaces and luminous color palettes—has garnered international acclaim. He honed his artistic skills at Castello Sforzesco Art School before relocating to Ibiza in the early 1970s, where he continues to reside and create, drawing inspiration from the island’s vibrant landscape and its profound connection to nature. Arlati's oeuvre transcends mere representation; it strives to embody a philosophical exploration of light itself—a concept championed by Leonardo da Vinci as one of the four fundamental elements influencing artistic perception—transforming opaque materials into sources of illumination and capturing the dynamic interplay between color and form. Early Influences: Arlati’s formative years were marked by exposure to Italian Futurism, a movement that embraced dynamism and technological advancement as aesthetic ideals. However, he swiftly moved beyond these stylistic constraints, gravitating towards the expressive language of Metaphysical painting—a genre rooted in Symbolist traditions and concerned with delving into the subconscious realm. This initial fascination with Futurist energy served as a springboard for Arlati’s subsequent artistic explorations, prompting him to delve deeper into psychological landscapes and symbolic imagery. Materic Style: Arlati’s artistic style is defined by his “materic” technique—a deliberate rejection of illusionistic representation in favor of textural surfaces that convey palpable physicality. He meticulously applies pigment to canvas, creating layered compositions that resemble sculptural forms, mirroring the influence of Spanish abstract expressionism. This approach prioritizes materiality above all else, emphasizing the tactile qualities of paint and substrate. The resulting canvases possess a remarkable depth and dimensionality, inviting viewers to engage with their surface texture as much as their chromatic hues. Ibiza and Luminosity: The artist’s relocation to Ibiza profoundly impacted his artistic vision. Here, he seeks to distill the essence of the island's atmosphere—the radiant sunlight, the prevailing winds, and the ceaseless movement of the sea—into monumental canvases that capture these elements not as literal depictions but as conduits of luminous energy. He believes that light is not merely a visual phenomenon but an independent force—a “lumi” akin to Da Vinci’s—that imbues objects and surfaces with inherent radiance. This perspective informs his compositional choices, resulting in paintings where color subtly disrupts the image’s boundaries, creating dynamic forms that embody a perpetual state of questioning. Recognition and Exhibitions: Arlati’s distinctive style has earned him recognition across Europe and beyond. His artworks are showcased in prestigious galleries and museums worldwide, cementing his position as a pivotal figure in contemporary Italian art. Notably, Contini Art Gallery championed his work early on, establishing a lasting partnership that continues to promote his artistic legacy. Among his notable exhibitions include solo shows at Galleria Nazionale d’Arte Moderna e Contemporanea in Rome and Palazzo Ducale di Amalfi, demonstrating the breadth of his artistic engagement and securing his place within the annals of Italian art history.
