Furniture 1983

"Furniture" (1983) by Francesco Clemente, a prominent Italian painter, is a striking example of his signature style, characterized by bold colors, figurative elements, and a blend of influences. The artwork depicts a dark-skinned figure, seemingly impaled by numerous small, white figures, creating a powerful and disturbing image. This piece, likely inspired by a combination of cultural and personal influences, invites viewers to contemplate themes of suffering, vulnerability, and the complexities of human experience.
