{"id":731,"count":64,"description":"Giuseppe Fortunato was born in Notaresco (TE), Italy, on November 5, 1956.\r\n\r\nHis artistic journey began at a very young age, culminating in his first solo exhibition at just 27 years old. He gained recognition in the 1980s for his performance art, and toward the end of that decade, he co-founded the IMAGES movement with a group of fellow Abruzzese artists.\r\n\r\nFortunato\u2019s relentless pursuit of technical refinement often led him beyond conventional themes, giving rise to a uniquely personal visual language, difficult to categorize within specific trends or eras. From this intense experimentation, he developed \"Assempaforismo\"\u2014an acronym for \"assemblaggio apodittico emendativo pittorico fortunato\", or Fortunato's apodictic emendative pictorial assemblage\u2014a concept that embodies his distinctive approach to composition and expression.\r\n\r\nIn 1995, he moved with his family to the Marche region, where he entered a new phase of stylistic exploration. During this time, he developed the now internationally recognized series of \"Colate\"\u2014large-scale works featuring simple paint pours across flat surfaces. These poured paintings have become his signature, celebrated for their immediacy, materiality, and visual impact.\r\n\r\nGiuseppe Fortunato continues to be a powerful presence in contemporary art, with a practice that bridges technique, innovation, and conceptual depth.","link":"https:\/\/delauretisart.com\/en\/artist\/giuseppe-fortunato\/","name":"Giuseppe Fortunato","slug":"giuseppe-fortunato","taxonomy":"product_brand","parent":0,"meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/delauretisart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand\/731","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/delauretisart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/delauretisart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/taxonomies\/product_brand"}],"wp:post_type":[{"href":"https:\/\/delauretisart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product?product_brand=731"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
