While some works exude energy and literally sweep the viewer away, others exude a pleasant calm and impress in a subtle way. This is what Silvia feels about the work ›Spazio tempo luce 6‹ by Nicola Grabiele, as she describes in our series ›My favourite - Art spotted‹.
What appeals to me most about this painting by Nicola Grabiele is the calm and strength it conveys through the use of oil paint. The intensity of the color in its simplicity and monochrome, which is only perceived at first glance, is underlined by the brushstrokes, by the movement created by the artist's hand that explodes in a moment suspended in time: time, light and space are intertwined and you can almost feel this painting. A masterful play with presence and absence, with materiality and color perception, makes this oil on canvas a timeless and impressive work of art.
