Gianfranco Bencini, a whimsical painter, gives both a fantastic and simple sense to common elements: flowers, fruits, landscapes, objects. Being a postimpressionist, especially in the color and composition; he defied the academical scheme, giving a new idea of the construction of those natural elements. His love for the represented things was so strong, so sincere that it gave him an artistic courage to overcome the hard way of a nonconformist. Those fruits, those flowers, those landscapes had a new physical dimension: an unreal, somewhat metaphysical and at the same time a shining strange composition, as if the author had tried a symbiosis in those "things", a mysterious connection with its own character, a mixture of passion and irony, offering a charming subject, an expressive test that we can accept. Eventually this is a purpose of the art: to know how to arouse admiration with simplicity, avoiding intellectual diaphragms.
