Morandi - Giorgio Morandi

Japanese: モランディ - もらんでぃ(英語表記)Giorgio Morandi
Morandi - Giorgio Morandi

Italian painter. Born in Bologna, he studied at the art school there and spent the rest of his life there. In 1914 he exhibited at a Futurist exhibition and participated in the Metaphysical movement from 1918 to 1920, but he was not very active in the Italian art movement and thereafter isolated himself and devoted himself to his work. In landscape painting he owes much to Cézanne and Corot, while in still life he relies on the plasticity of Giotto and the early Renaissance, capturing images with simplified outlines and creating an intellectual, meditative world of painting with thick oil paintings using cool colors such as white, gray, and brown as the main colors. He also produced many prints and watercolors.

Japanese:

イタリアの画家。ボローニャで生まれ、同地の美術学校で学び、生涯をこの地で過ごした。1914年には未来主義者の展覧会に出品し、18年から20年まで形而上(けいじじょう)派に参加するが、そういうイタリアの芸術運動に対してあまり積極的ではなく、その後は孤立して制作に専念する。風景画においてはむしろセザンヌやコローに負うところが多く、静物においてはジョットや初期ルネサンスの造形性をよりどころとして、形象を単純化された輪郭でとらえ、白、灰色、褐色などの寒色を主調とした油の厚塗りの画面により、知的で瞑想(めいそう)的な絵画世界をつくりあげた。版画と水彩も多い。
