Dina
Cangi is a sensitive and refined painter and, because of her precious
technique, she can manage different and varied themes and poetics
with absolute certainty. This is why her artistic path is marked by
a succession of cycles, periods and phases characterising her production
which always aims at continuous research, constant experimentation
and perpetual desire for creation, production and invention.
The works of this solo show belong to the cycle "between heaven
and earth", in which the skilful artist from Arezzo attempts
to put the two elements on communication, both physical and spiritual.
Elements which represent the area where men live and act.
They are works of a high pictorial value due to the great care involved,
to the accuracy used in the technical settlement, to the wise and
careful use of the colour which proceeds, glazing after glazing, to
the effects, results and outcomes Cangi wished to achieve. Works from
which the artist comes out totally, with her capacity to interpenetrate
situations and circumstances, for the attention given to the performance
of atmosphere, for the clever ability to make the viewer float into
sheer and swirling worlds yet concrete and defined, always rich of
pathos and intense poetry.
Then it is as if the earth, with its strength nd substance, was permeated
into the levity and abstractness of heaven; as if the airy effusions
of incredible skies became concrete in the magmatic dephts of the
earth; as if Cangi's paintings were able to make the man's utopian
sign to join heaven and earth, concreteness and abstraction, subject
matter and poetry, lif and death concrete.
