“… when you paint on a raw canvas, whether with oil or acrylic, you appreciate all the immediacy of contemporary art… There are no filters given by the technique, by the preparation of the canvas, but only the imagination mixed with immediacy of the trait…”

(Cesare Catania)

Given the significant size of the canvases used, the contemporary artist, in the execution of his tapestries, first creates a preparatory drawing and then moves directly to the canvas without further steps, first drawing the raw fabric and then coloring it with spatulas and brushes.

The Tapestries of Cesare Catania: a contemporary look at an ancient tradition

Cesare Catania’s tapestries mix the ancient tradition in the use of natural and raw materials, often initially not loomed, with the imagination in the use of bright and spatula colors. The canvas, often in natural jute or simple cotton, is brushed with unmixed and undiluted oil colours, without traditional preparation. This allows the Italian artist to express his emotions and sensations in a more direct way, without having the typical filter of the traditional preparation of supports and colors.
