Sandro Chia’s Lonely Explorer (1991) is a lithograph that captures the artist’s signature expressive style, blending elements of neo-expressionism with classical references. The composition features a muscular male figure seated on the ground, his back turned to the viewer, hand grasping his head in a contemplative pose. The richly textured brushstrokes and vibrant color palette—dominated by earthy reds, yellows, and greens—convey a sense of emotional intensity. The figure’s worn clothing, suspenders, and scattered stones evoke themes of solitude, struggle, and introspection. Part of a limited edition of 75, this work exemplifies Chia’s fascination with the human form and the poetic, almost mythological, aura that surrounds his subjects.

What is Transvanguardia ?
Transavanguardia is the Italian version of Neo-Expressionism, referring to an art movement that emerged in Italy and other parts of Western Europe during the 1970s and 1980s. The term translates to beyond the avant-garde. Transavanguardia arose as a reaction against the dominance of conceptual art, reintroducing emotion and reviving painting as a primary medium. The movement marked a return to mythic imagery and figurative art, celebrating a rediscovery of traditional forms and themes in a contemporary context.
