Salvatore Garau
1953 Sangiusta - Sardinia
With extreme rigour, Salvatore
Garau was, and continues to be,
the painter of a completely interior
landscape which takes from the
unconscious and concretises on an
apparent unreality which confuses
but returns “natural phenomenon”
across a dark, turbulent fluid which
can even be menacing, never fulfilled
and motionless.
With a palette limited to black,
the surface is animated with dense
masses, in an inexhaustible movement
without confines, landscapes,
apparently similar in their repetition
and yet so different, strengthen the
inner world of this Neo-Romantic
painter.
