One of the recurring themes in Renato Criscuolo's work is the ability to capture a fleeting moment, freezing an emotion and the energy of a gesture in time.
In this 2009 painting, part of the “Summer Reflections” series, the artist portrays a young boy caught in a vertical leap, suspended in an athletic and expressive pose. The vibrant blue background evokes the summer sky, while the figure stands out boldly with strong, lively colors.
The brushstrokes are textured and dynamic, almost sculptural. The simple yet powerful composition conveys the magic of childhood and the spontaneity of movement, hallmarks of Criscuolo’s visual language.
This painting can be appreciated as a standalone piece or paired with “Summer Reflections No. 2”, with which it forms a harmonious and complementary duo.
