Abstract:
 

The faces of Giuseppe Iannello 

The human face is the favourite subject of this young artist. Using the techniques of puntasecca, acquaforte, acquatinta and vernice molle, he realises artworks that are characterised by crossed and overlapping signs that define the rough representation of a face with confused outlines (sometimes non-existent), in which the eyes are likely to play the primary role. Actually it is on the strength of the glance that the artist seems to focus his attention, annihilating any environmental connotation and sometimes limiting the definition of the face to one single eye. The faces, detached from the supporting body, seem to emerge from an anonymous background . They stand out thanks to their dark-light contrasts and dynamic effects that emphasise physical concreteness and the fixity of a glance that shows a sort of existentialist introspection. They are anonymous faces, nobody ‘s faces, everybody’s faces. In some sheets the overlapping of lines is so marked that produces a whirling effect which distorts the subject’s figurativeness towards the problematic limits of abstraction .
