Uomini (1989) by Enzo Cucchi is a monumental etching and aquatint that embodies the artist’s distinct blend of neo-expressionism and symbolism. Measuring an imposing 270 x 75 cm, the work features a ghostly human figure rendered in earthy, atmospheric tones that evoke ancient cave paintings or spiritual apparitions. The elongated form stands upright, its outline glowing faintly against a textured background, with a luminous white area suggesting an internal light or vital force at the figure’s center. Surrounding specks of white hint at cosmic or mystical elements, reinforcing Cucchi’s recurring themes of transcendence, the body, and the metaphysical. The figure’s raw, almost primal execution and towering scale lend it a haunting presence, bridging the mythic and the contemporary. This print is part of an edition of 60, showcasing Cucchi’s ability to channel narrative, emotion, and mystery through pared-down, evocative form.
