Enzo Cangi (1938 - 1978) was a painter originally from Pieve Santo Stefano, in the province of Arezzo, born in 1938 and passed away in 1974. Cangi graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Florence under the guidance of Onofrio Martinelli and Emanuele Cadili, artistic personalities of great importance in twentieth-century painting. Rodolfo Margheri was his engraving master. Recognized master of particular value in this field of artistic activity. Enzo Cangi's research has stood out above all in the development of a brushstroke that was born as post-impressionistic but ends up charging the depicted objects with existential vibrations. In this sense, a sure reference model will have been Giorgio Morandi, as we can imagine from the rich production of still lifes of pottery and bottles. Another great trend in which Enzo Cangi's activity is rich is that of the typically Tuscan rural landscape, linked above all to the minimal and rationalist realism of Ottone Rosai.
