Painter and sculptor, his art was born in 1968, Perozzi has done an analysis of contemporary society, the cornerstone of his artistic philosophy. The art becomes a bridge to the explicit analytical, sometimes resulting in the complaint, the inconsistencies of our traditional moral contemporaneity. Here then emerging issues such as consumerism, pollution, lack of values, making his work a testimony of contemporary reality, forcing the audience to reflection looking at the same time away from the itself performance aesthetic. From technical point of view, his paintings are characterized by a careful but fast implementation, as if to establish a symbolic link with today’s frenzy.
Ouppurst e reality
Painter and sculptor. Perozzi’s analysis of the contemporary society is the foundation of his art.
For him art is the path to the analytical explication and sometimes a condemnation of the moral contradictions of the contemporary world.
He depicts themes like consumerism, pollution, the contemporary reality, forcing observers to reflect and in the meantime to move away from the self-imposing aesthetic repre-sentation. Stylistically his paintings are characterized by an accurate but fast execution; it seems he wants to establish a symbiotic link with the frantic speed of our contemporary world.
Even the colures themselves are the fusion of the emotional impulse and a previously stu-died organization of the work: the combined and iridescent colures, sometimes impetuous, juxtapose onto the canvas, mixing up skillfully with different types of objects. We must also underline the fact that the artist himself prefers pigments with earths and other elements recreating the chemistry of an old workshop we have lost the memory of.
In his paintings the artist evokes the use of different techniques and material: golden leavers, book-faces, clippings and objects.
The assembling of all these materials creates a sort of pictorial sculpture which shows his disapproval and sometimes his anger towards a helpless and unconscious world that seems to go straight towards self-destruction.
It is clear that in is creation he offers various ways of interpretation, starting from the title which is thought to hit the observer and accompany him into the comprehension, apparently simple, of his works.
His sculptures are very interesting too: big block-shape casting, made of plastic but similar to bronze, symbolizing, through the choice of material the disquiet of our society that has elected as supreme goods the plastic itself without considering the dam-ages it causes. So far its plastic sculptures are real tangles denouncing the contemporary man’s schizophrenia.
Siro Perin - art critic
Maurizio Perozzi nasce a Terzo di Aquileia nell’aprile del 1951, frequenta l’istituto d’arte di Cascina (Pisa), successivamente la scuola d’arte Giovanni da Udine. Vive molteplici esperienze artistiche frequentando pittori e scultori che nel corso degli anni 70 e 80 si sono presentati al pubblico nazionale ed europeo delineando obbiettivi e profili che tuttora influenzano le scelte espressive di numerosi artisti. Giudicato con favore dalla critica e dal suo pubblico, accoglie gli inviti di numerosi galleristi, partecipando a manifestazioni ed esposizioni in Italia, Francia e Germania. La sua natura poco incline al compromesso e contraria a scelte e forma imposte dal mercato, rafforzano in lui la convinzione che qualsiasi forma di rappresentazione artistica non possa che rispondere alla tensione emotiva che l’ha alimentata; matura in lui l’idea di ritirarsi a vita privata lasciando la propria ricerca di nuove forma espressive lontano dal pubblico. In questi anni contraddistinti dalla ricerca dei valori, ritrova tra la gente del suo paese ed il legame e il senso delle tradizioni, radici che permettano ad ogni uomo di esprimere la propria arte, dando significato all’agire quotidiano, rappresentando la Vita.
