루이지 루치오니(Luigi Lucioni), 미국, 화가, 1900-1988
이탈리아에서 태어난 '루이지 루치아노'는 11살 때 미국으로 이민을 왔습니다. 낯선 미국 땅에서 정규 교육을 받지는 못했지만 회화는 물론 에칭 등 판화가로도 활발한 활동을 했죠.
풍경화와 정물화를 많이 그렸으며, 특히 자작나무 묘사에 탁월한 솜씨를 가진 예술가입니다.
About Him
Luigi Lucioni was an Italian-born American painter and printmaker best known for his detailed portraits, still lifes, and landscapes of the Vermont countryside. Completed in a style reminiscent of realist painters Winslow Homer and Thomas Eakins, Lucioni’s paintings are meditative and meticulous, though the Modernist works of Paul Cézanne have also influenced the artist. “You can't cope with nature,” Lucioni has said. “You can't put in all the little things that nature can do so easily and you can't. So you have to get the essentials of these things, and that is my idea of realism.” Born on November 4, 1900 in Malnate, Italy, his family immigrated to New York in 1911 and eventual settled in Union City, NJ.
Though he never finished primary school, Lucioni was admitted to Cooper Union at the age of 15, where he studied painting under William de Leftwich Dodge. At that time he was also working for a Brooklyn engraving company and soon after attended the National Academy of Design, where William Auerbach Levy introduced him to etching. The artist died on July 22, 1988 in New York, NY. Lucioni’s works are in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., the Indianapolis Museum of Art, and the Cleveland Museum of Art, among others.
