Artworks from 1982 to 1991
These works mark the beginning of Ruggero Vanni’s career and beautifully capture the artist’s fascination with the Venetian’s painting renaissance, especially the work of Jacopo Tintoretto and Veronese. The emphasis on the importance of color and light, even though it will remain a constant of his visual practice, is more evident in the canvases painted during these ten years. The brush strokes are controlled and almost outlined with the precision of a drawing, leaving no space for any textural exuberance.
