biography
Salvatore Pupillo was born in Rome in 1956, where he lives and works.
The artistic context in which the artist operates seems to be unmistakably that of informal abstraction in the European tradition. Salvatore Pupillo's abstract styles arise from a need to express intimate reflections of the soul on the pictorial surface.
The backgrounds are layers of chromatic glazes that seem to evoke a sensation rather than a tangible reality, immersing the viewer in intangible atmospheres. What makes his stylistic signature unmistakable is his mark, the detail that captures the attention and allows the artist's hand to be immediately identified’, a sort of trademark that can also be seen in his latest series, Sipari (Curtains) and Confini (Borders), which feature a concentration of signs on the sides of the canvas but are always characterized by a representative softness that makes them mobile, porous, almost as if the artist were pursuing a form of communication, a bridge between one canvas and another, a successful attempt to break down boundaries. The artist's works are present in numerous private collections in Italy and abroad, including that of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Rome.
