BIOGRAPHY: Gastone Peirano was born in Mapello in 1926 and comes from a family of painters. He trained at the Cimabue Academy in Milan and initially dedicated himself to the activity of graphic designer. From the end of the 60s he decided to dedicate himself exclusively to his profession as a painter, after moving to Rome he began a fruitful collaboration with the Tartaglia Gallery. He has numerous critical and public affirmations to his credit in Italy and abroad. In 2005, during the six months of the Universal Exposition in Aichi (Japan) his works were exhibited and were particularly appreciated by the top Italian diplomatic authority responsible for the event. Gastone Peirano's pictorial language rests on solid foundations recognizable in each of his works. First of all, an objective conception of painting that leads the artist to depict on the canvas the phenomenal reality as it is perceived by his senses without subjective filters. In support of this instance there is an excellent pictorial technique that allows Peirano to achieve a perfect naturalistic rendering. Physiognomic and anatomical perfection is pursued in every detail through a light application of color that respects the softness of the skin and the quality of the fabrics. As further support, the artist adds a balanced dosage of incident light, which striking the subjects creates a natural play of shadows.
