Bruno Bruni's art is the art of a consistent aesthete. It was so from the very beginning, and it remained so even when, at the time of his artistic beginnings, the art market expected above all abstraction and was highly sceptical of any representationalism in art. The tenacity with which Bruno defended his idea of the beauty of the artwork in words and works is quite admirable. Bruno remained true to himself, be it in his drawings, his lithography or his sculptural work. Even then, there were many admirers of his work who repeatedly emphasised that it was not Bruno's least achievement to refocus beauty in art. Bruno Bruni never shied away from depicting great emotions. This is also the case with 'Amore': his couple in an intimate embrace shows two lovers and, if you like, love itself in its dual form of deep emotional affection and sensual desire.
