MAX PELLEGRINI (n. 1945)

 
Pellegrini returns to Classical Mythology to paint an adapted narration of the love story of Cupid and Psyche. Traditionally, Psyche was a young princess who was hailed for her beauty and unfortunately caught the eye of a jealous Venus. Venus entrusted Cupid to punish Psyche by making her fall in love with something hideous. Cupid accidently scratched himself with his amorous dart, by which he immediately fell in love with Psyche. As a result, Cupid disobeyed his mother’s orders to punish Psyche. Ultimately they married, but not before Psyche completed a number of painstaking and nearly impossible tasks at the behest of Venus. <br><br>Pellegrini’s interpretation of this myth is cast over two canvases with different chromatic palettes, oscillating on a spectrum of abstraction and representation. This creates a disorienting temporal effect that creates a sense of mystery surrounding the passage of time between two lovers.

Pellegrini vuelve a la mitología clásica para pintar una narración adaptada de la historia de amor de Cupido y Psique. Tradicionalmente, Psique era una joven princesa que fue aclamada por su belleza y desafortunadamente llamó la atención de una Venus celosa. Venus confió en Cupido para castigar a Psique haciendo que se enamorara de algo horrible. Cupido se arañó accidentalmente con su dardo amoroso, con el cual se enamoró inmediatamente de Psique. Como resultado, Cupido desobedeció las órdenes de su madre de castigar a Psique. Finalmente se casaron, pero no antes de que Psique completara una serie de tareas laboriosas y casi imposibles a instancias de Venus.

La interpretación de Pellegrini de este mito se basa en dos lienzos con diferentes paletas cromáticas, que oscilan sobre un espectro de abstracción y representación. Esto crea un efecto temporal desorientador que crea una sensación de misterio en torno al paso del tiempo entre dos amantes.
