Sferzato dal vento – Antonino Puliafico
Medium: oil on canvas, palette knife
Size: 100 × 115 cm
Year: 2025
In Sferzato dal vento (“Swept by the Wind”), Antonino Puliafico captures the raw force of nature through a dynamic interplay of color and gesture. Bold, oblique strokes convey the impact of wind on cliffs and sea, generating a rhythm that envelops the viewer. The deep blues of the water meet the luminous greens of the coastline, enhanced by the brilliance of Mediterranean light.
The impasto surface, sculpted with generous layers, conveys both energy and movement, standing as a refined example of palette-knife painting. Here, matter itself becomes protagonist, carving waves and rocks into a chromatic symphony.
This work reflects Puliafico’s exploration of contemporary Italian art, where gesture and nature converge into a powerful textured oil on canvas. A painting of striking scenic presence, it resonates with collectors seeking works that celebrate the intensity of the Mediterranean seascape.
Safe worldwide shipping in a custom wooden crate, fully insured and handled by professional couriers.
First-rate oil colors of the Florentine brand "DI VOLO" applied with spatula were used for the painting, and the pictorial support is a cottono canvas pre-painted for oil painting with Gesso and Glue.
