ANGELO MAZZOLENI-BIOGRAPHY The origins ,primordial forces, new art syncretic and lasts sperimentations

"Angelo Mazzoleni was born in Florence on 7th June 1952, he lives and works in Bergamo and is an interesting and original painter with a consolidated renown. With an autodidact education, he attended some courses at the Carrara Academy in Bergamo and started with his artistic activity when he was young, under the guide of some masters. He has painted for more than 27 years. His education is marked by a varied and very personal research of the world origins and its vital force through three main moments: - the study of the infancy and the primitive history, through the nominal representation of mans primordial forces and energy (historical origins); - the research of the archetypes of existence and life, both through the scompositions in plans of the reality and through material compositions, the more ovoidal or different structures whose main themes are: symbology bound with paths of light, temples and labyrinths.

- Recently, the artist is developping an interesting research of syncretic type. From that it was born the foundation, with some other artists from Bergamo, of a new group-movement syncretic art, still in phase of developpement, while in the same way the artist is continuing to experiment some new and innovating expressive forms. In general, all his educational course is tended to an historical and spiritual synthesis between past and present, to represent and penetrate the sources of life, the mysterious and ancestral dimensions of human soul and of the world.

Critic notes about Angelo Mazzoleni last works"

In the very interesting Angelo Mazzolenis last works some beautiful and original mixed techniques on various supports, theres a real wish to communicate, to transmit, to correspond, thanks to the great force that these works emit; this force involves the observer, and obliges him to stop and think. In fact its like a liberation of an intrinsic energy that obliges to read it further to the material, and awakens some questions, doubts, anxiety. Its an eschatological research of the artist, there are existential and transcendental problems that always trouble man to be in the center of his works; thats the opinion about something divine, superior (the moltitude of temples, the magic of the door of the night or the crepuscolar one, etc.) that is re-created by Mazzoleni, as he lives it totally, thanks to the apport of a matter, and of a materiality, that is transformed and ennobled by this artistic operation. These mixed techniques, the amazing ovules, with their dramatic effects, mean for the first thing to recognize the poetry of an artist, sensitive and malleable, able to catch the force of suggestion transmitted by the mixing of matter, colour and sign in an affirmation of the values, that born from the deep and intensive breath of a big and remote feeling, but without a limit of space and time. Love for the matter and its potentialities and dialectical research mark Angelo Mazzolenis works, that in these specific works of art reveal its big communicative capability, ready to talk about an indifferent and anonymous society, like ours is ever and ever, where the human values, the divines ones, fall down in the shade that wraps the past and makes the future intelligible.
