Mayor in Siena
Enzo Santini is first of all a man with a rare sensibility. A man who has been able to translate suggestive imagines and fascinations in lines and colours into a poetic way; all this is the result of a cultural and civil journey of great intensity. In fact his works are pervaded with a serene brightness and with rigorous chromatic score stressed with quiet determination. Nevertheless they show a crowd of ideal elements, shaped in a melting pot of figurative experience for long, fed continuously by an unexhausted wish to cover newer and newer fields of research.
The entangled profiles of metaphysical structures and the refined trait, which animates the sinuous lines of this painting, are always marked by an absolute coherence. It seems as if a bright dust comes down from his worryng lapislazuled skies and it switches precious chrysalises quivering of poetry full of strong allusive tension and deep meaning. In fact Santini's refined perception has never been rhetorical and every single element is able to give back an immediate unity to his aesthetic and ideal project.
