Ottorino De Lucchi
Profilewatercolourist
Ottorino De Lucchi was born in Ferrara on 8 November 1951.
He has been painting for about twenty years and he shows a marked adherence to the “optical” and natural truth of the image, which he represents through a minute and analytical description of the details. The compositions of fruit, leaves and flowers, however, take on a marked dramatic note, which finds expression in the light that illuminates the subjects and places them in strong relief with respect to the bottom plane on which they are depicted.
Light literally builds forms, makes them sacred and profane together, giving the subjects metaphysical qualities that prelude to a symbolic reading of the image. In recent years the artist has developed a variant of the dry brush technique, a method that allows him to create intense works and has conservation prosess similar to oil painting.
The researches, materials and every phase of the executive process have been, several times, source of publication by Ottorino De Lucchi.
