Original artwork description:

Oltre i tetti – Antonino Puliafico

Medium: oil on canvas, palette knife
Size: 180 × 110 cm
Year: 2025

In Oltre i tetti (“Beyond the Rooftops”), Antonino Puliafico interprets the urban landscape as a living organism, vibrant with color and movement. Oblique palette-knife strokes create a dynamic weave where towers, bell towers, and rooftops emerge beneath a sky traversed by chromatic currents that evoke wind and ever-shifting light.

This work stands as a mature example of palette-knife painting, where the pictorial matter becomes the true protagonist. Colors, applied in bold impasto, transform architectural forms into visual rhythm, projecting the city into a space suspended between reality and abstraction.

Oltre i tetti belongs to Puliafico’s ongoing exploration of contemporary Italian art, uniting memory and vision within a textured oil on canvas of striking scenic impact. With its evocative power and Mediterranean luminosity, it is a work that resonates strongly in modern spaces and international collections.
