ARTIST'S
STATEMENT
Paintings by Robert Andriulli, whether created from direct observations
or studio elaborations that evolve from many sources, are recognizable
for their painterly realism that depicts both a fidelity to subject
and an uncommon visual style. For over 30 years, Robert Andriulli
has explored a variety of subjects and themes, but has consistently
been concerned with issues of representational landscape paintings-
both rural and urban. The works created during this period represent
his continued interest in responding to the various forms and light
of nature and in certain juxtapositions of natural landscapes and
the urban environment. Central to the work is the exploration of
the formal and expressive possibilities of a motif as revealed through
the process of language and art.
The category of landscape/cityscape is self-evident except it is
qualified by how a work is made. Much of his works are perceptually
based and completed on location, while others are started
from life and then reworked away from the subject. Work also evolves
in the studio, originating from paintings and drawings from life,
imagination, invention, memory, photos, art historical and related
sources, and in discoveries made in the creative process. What all
of the works share in common is the search for a visual equivalent
for both physical and emotional experiences that, in turn, enables
reflection upon universal themes.
