Died in Cagliari Antonio Pala

Died in Cagliari Antonio Pala. The painter Antonio Pala went off the other night in Cagliari, city ​​that had exalted in many of his works capturing the lights and colors, revealing the hidden suggestions and. In Cagliari was tied up, even though its main point of reference has always been Laerru, dov'era then 68 anni fa e da dove si era spostato in gioventù per frequentare la Scuola d’arte di Sassari e intraprendere una strada di vita faticosa ma certamente lastricata di soddisfazioni. I pushed him masters such Figari, Dessy, Tavolara, Tilocca,
of which assimilated the technique, il, Class, the dignity of the protagonist, to reach its own, individualissima figure painting featuring a realistic vein addressed to the symbolism. Due anni e mezzo fa la sua ultima mostra personale: la cinquantesima, in over forty years of artistic career. Non a caso volle celebrare a Cagliari il suo giubileo espositivo, host of "Gallery 13". Corners citizens, views, flowers, fruit, e immagini femminili, women cloaked in mystery and fascination. Aroused much admiration, then, una monumentale Via Crucis; solo oggi possiamo capire che dietro quelle impressionanti immagini dipinte con l’animo c’era un calvario personale. But before giving, Antonio Pala has made a final sculpture, per donarla alla chiesa della sua Laerru.
