The memory of the lockdown. A series of large-sized paintings in which the artist Andrea Baruffi interprets the dark period of the lockdown in a surreal, ironic and colorful way. His contemporary and alternative figurative painting reflects the optimistic and rejuvenated spirit typical of America, his country of adoption, in which "you can" is the verb that if you want everything is possible!
The work My lockdown playing, cm 150x100 acrylic and oil on canvas, represents the pictorial cycle performed during the lockdown period in 2020. These works are deliberately ironic, surreal and colorful almost to desecrate that dark moment and convey confidence and optimism. The artist Andrea Baruffi, Italian and American architect by adoption, lived in New York for over 40 years absorbing very much, both in his work as an advertising graphic designer and in his artistic field, the surreal optimistic spirit of America where, if you want, anything could happen.
