Enrico Pinardi Artist Talk

Enrico V. Pinardi has been a leading figure among New England painters, sculptors, and draftsmen since the 1960s. Earning BFA from Massachusetts College of Art and an MFA in 1967 from Rhode Island School of Design. Pinardi's work reflects the heritage of early twentieth-century surrealism, while showcasing a minimalist approach, trompe l’oeil style, and creative skills across several media. Throughout his prolific career, Pinardi has produced paintings and sculptures dealing with both the dream world and the viewer’s consciousness by integrating historical and religious symbols into his own experiences. Pinardi’s individual style builds upon and establishes new modes of dealing with the subconscious. Guiding him through his most challenging personal experiences, his artwork yields marvelous results and mysterious mazes of a life lived to the fullest. Continually creating work that invites the viewer to share his experiences and dreams. Many of Pinardi's artistic spaces, like the best metaphysical art, may be uncomfortable to enter, but they are always entrancing, thought-provoking, and sincere.
