Aquatint and gold leaf // Bull by Mimmo Paladino is a limited edition aquatint with gold leaf, blending textured abstraction with symbolic imagery. The composition is divided into two sections: the top half, rendered in a dense black, filled with fine, chaotic lines that add depth and intensity, and the bottom half, adorned with gold leaf, presenting a stark contrast. In the center of the golden section stands a solitary black bull, depicted in delicate detail, grounding the piece with a sense of presence and weight. The contrast between the dark, abstract upper portion and the golden lower half creates a mysterious, almost mystical quality. Measuring 50 cm by 35 cm, this artwork evokes themes of strength, endurance, and ancient symbolism, hallmarks of Paladino's work, with the bull as a timeless figure within mythological and cultural contexts.

What is figurative art?
Sometimes known as Figurativism, figurative art refers to sculptures and paintings that are clearly or specifically derived from real objects, making them representational. The term figurative art is often used in contrast to abstract art. However, since the emergence of abstract art, figurative art has come to describe any form of modern art that has strong references to the real world or actual situations.
