Ferdinando Ambrosino is an Italian Artist, born in 1938, who began painting in the early 1950’s. The diverse styles he achieved between the 1950’s and 70’s resemble and transcend impressionism, cubism and neo-realism. During this time his work developed, addressing subjects and themes of his native land and of the reality of Man as laborer. The Sacred Profane represents his more recent work. This contemporary series, which encompasses the maturity of his artistic voice, has been referred to as an iconographic style that fuses the abstraction and spirituality of the genre with the vivid realism of still lives and landscapes.
