B E A U T Y

by Rino Stefano Tagliafierro

The human body in modern and neo-classical art comes to life in an ethereal and iconic tale

BEAUTY is a short tale on the emotions of life: from birth to death, love and sex, pain and fear. A tribute to the classic pictorial tradition and its intriguing beauty, in a series of images of traditional paintings, from the Renaissance to late 19th century Symbolism, including Manierism, Landscape Art, Romanticism and Neo-Classicism.

The beauty is translated into the expressive force of a gesture extrapolated from the stillness of the painting, animating a feeling and removing it from its museum-like fixity, which now comes back to life thanks to the flames of digital invention.
