Emilio Scanavino's artistic research developed during the 1950s, culminating in works in which the "knot" becomes the protagonist, a stylized sign that gives life to rhythmic stories and suggestive atmospheres. His painting becomes an expression of interiority with all its torments, conveying a sense of suspension in time and of presences evoked in the shadows of the studio or in the nature of Calice Ligure, where the artist would later move his studio.
Throughout the 70s, the artistic production of Scanavino was characterized by an ever-increasing simplification of the sign, culminating in grids and geometric architectures. His painting continued to evolve, reflecting constant research and intense exhibition activity both in Italy and abroad. Emilio Scanavino's artistic career came to an end in 1986 with his death in Milan. His artistic legacy, and his ability to express human interiority with his distinctive "knot" sign, remain today witnesses to an eclectic artist of great importance on the twentieth-century art scene. His work, which is difficult to pin down to a specific movement, developed between informal abstractionism, abstract expressionism and the artistic research of figures such as Hans Hartung and Georges Mathieu, leaving an indelible mark on the history of art.
