Summer 

Romero Britto, in his vibrant work Summer, uses acrylic to capture a vision of joy and energy through a striking female figure. The sun, a powerful symbol of life, rebirth, and enlightenment is split, creating the impression of movement and a sense of dynamism. This light, this warmth, is here fractured in a way that recalls the fragmented realities of Cubism, yet imbued with the optimism so characteristic of our artist. Consider how ancient cultures revered the sun, and how its image appears in countless forms, from Egyptian gods to Renaissance allegories. Here, it is remade, reborn through the artist's bright, fractured shapes. The swirling sea, an emblem of both tranquility and the untamed forces of nature, invites the viewer into a subconscious recognition of life's ebb and flow. Britto seems to suggest that joy is found in the acceptance and celebration of summer, the sun, and the sea. These symbols cycle through human history, echoing through time, each era interpreting them anew, bearing witness to the ever-changing human experience.
