Important collectible painting
Nico Nicosia (1930-2002)
* painter present at the Quadriennale Foundation of Rome and in the general archive
- Nico Nicosia is one of the most representative painters of the Italian twentieth century, a native Sicilian, his education is modeled on the European figurative currents, from Courbet to Van Gogh to Picasso. In his expressionism the Sicilian motifs become increasingly stronger, emblem of his origins. These aspects the artist feels to the highest degree and infuses with great power in his paintings. He reproduces the woman as he has always seen her, his spirit has imbibed and nourished her; so in Nicosia's paintings we see reproduced the ardent and almost pagan beauty of the Sicilian woman that made a great foreign writer say "from the mouths that burn when speaking". It was not by chance that they were called pagan because all of Sicily is influenced by that fleshy, tasty and colorful richness of forms that characterized the Hellenic and Roman arts.
