Proferio Grossi (1923-2000) - Natura morta 1989

Proferio Grossi (Parma, 1923 – Milan, 2000), Italian artist of national significance, former member of the prestigious MAC (Movimento Arte Concreta). Oil on panel (masonite), "Still Life", executed in 1989, unique work. Height 70 cm x Width 50 cm (dimensions of the painted panel alone, without the frame). Overall dimensions with frame: Height 91 cm x Width 71 cm x Depth about 4 cm. Signed and dated in oil by the artist on the lower right front: "Proferio Grossi 1989". Also present is the autograph signature, dating, and the author’s handwritten location on the reverse: "Proferio Grossi / Milan 1989". Provenance: private Italian collection. The painted panel is in excellent overall condition, with vivid, stable colors and a perfectly intact support. The large gilded frame with a mat is included in the lot as a gift; the latter shows some minor aesthetic defects and small signs of time that do not compromise the overall aesthetics of the work (please view details carefully in the photos). The work will be sent mounted on a panel and framed (ready to hang). We will carry out professional custom packaging. The shipment will be fully trackable and insured. The work is sold and shipped exclusively within the countries of the European Union. SHIPMENTS TO NON-EU COUNTRIES ARE NOT MADE TO AVOID DELAYS OR CUSTOMS PROCEDURES. After an initial geometric abstract phase in the 1940s, Proferio Grossi established himself as one of the most refined interpreters of trompe-l’œil and hyperrealist still life in Italy. This 1989 composition stands out for the complexity of the described elements (fruit, metals, books, enameled cup) and for the suggestive inclusion of the "picture within a frame" in the background, a perceptive and surreal element that elevates the collectible appeal of the work.
