Seduzione dell'Inverno (Winter Seduction) Painting

Gianluigi Casiraghi was born in 1953 in Gallarate (Italy). He approached painting as self-taught at the beginning of the 70s, studying the artists Carlo Carrà and Mario Sironi. The first works are executed in oil on canvas or with enamels on glass. The pictorial activity was interrupted during the university period and later with the work commitment in Milan. In the 2012/2013 period, he expressed interest in optical art and pop art, and later he started to make modern figurative works that were sometimes informal, with prevalent use of acrylic colors. His ongoing research concerns the language of color, light and dark, movement, depth and three-dimensionality. He is a member of the 3° (Alfa Artist Association) of Gallarate with whom he participated in various initiatives including exhibitions at the municipality of Gallarate, at the historic San Pietro church in Gallarate. He participated in the reproduction of the painting "Justice" by Luigi Cavenago included in the renovation project of the Gallarate's church. To his credit numerous personal and collective exhibitions of which among the most recent in Arona (Italy) in July 2017 (inaugurated by the mayor Doct.
