DINETTO LINO

Lino Dinetto (Este 01/09/1927) lover of the arts from an early age, started painting "en plein air" in the evocative setting of the Colli Euganei.
He studied artistically speaking in Venice the classical Venetian. Dinetto after meeting Carra and Sironi deepened his thinking, analyzing the metaphysical and the message of the artwork, the order of the elements, the harmony of colour thought. He began to devote himself to create large paintings, it was so lucky that after a series of frescoes, received one of the first tasks commissioned by the Abbey of Monte Oliveto in Tuscany: the Last Supper of Christ.
In addition to the Veneto, his name came in other regions of Italy: three years after the outbreak of World War II he was required to Padua to attend the first show of the Temple. He left soon to Montevideo in Uruguay, where he was engaged for nearly five years in the fresco the whole Cathedral of St. José; great was consensus and success at the end of the work, so much so that from 1955 to 1960 was called the Institute of Fine Arts St. Francisco to Montevideo to preside over the teaching of Painting and Drawing. It was in those places, so distant from his home, which he reflected on another current art: Cubism; the art of Lino Dinetto thus began to turn, trying a new taste than the formality of the image. After completion of two series (among many of the master) "i porti" and "il cosmo", in 1959 the Museum of Modern Art in Sao Paulo wanted to organize an exhibition in his honour.
It was not even a year after his return to Italy, in 1960, that he went back to work at once, in fact in 1963 he painted the "monastic history”. He also received a commission by Prince Rainier to make a complete cycle of works.
His sensitivity to the art world, the undoubted talent, brought him to the discovery and conquest of a world with the blossoms of his name overseas. The popular Lino Dinetto girls, his naked, lines stretched the definition, glances of serenity and soaked of cheerful as a wish of his works, to see humanity of love, where there are no first or third worlds, where the violence and evil are useless. His images dragged into a world of utopias, desires and light. In his "venetian lanscape" covered with a simple hug subtle harmonies, the shadow-shelter made from a tree, an elegant hope that transpires from his works.
In Treviso, from 20/11/2010 to 30/01/2011, at the Palazzo dei Trecento in Piazza dei Signori, the exhibition Harmonia.
