He is so in the deepest sense of the term because, in addition to often choosing the Piceno territory as the preferred subject of his work, he is also the custodian of a painting tradition typical of Ascoli: together with a clear influence of the best post-impressionist French painting, from Cezanne to Chagall, Serafini’s work sits in the wake of the illustrious Ascolan painters Dino Ferrari and Ernesto Ercolani, a starting point for a deeply original inner deformation of the visual element. The exploration of environments, typically silent and devoid of human presence, is always an inner search, which leans urban agglomerations and the fields, the mountains and the skies, as if the wave of memory and recollections shattered the very reality, bending it, making its evanescent contours and distinctive features. The color, which captures and drags the gaze into the composition, is also expressive, often anti-naturalistic, with tones alternately bright or somber, capable of condensing light into the volumes of the depicted subjects: the Marche landscapes, with the countryside turning into tapestries woven from the “stoffe” of the different crops, but also the city of Ascoli, with its typical still and solitary towers like metafysical artifacts; and then the animals of the still living peasant tradition, among which the rooster stands out, a recurring element of his production, treated in a quasi-futurist manner, convergence and explosion of dynamic lines and vivid colors, true “trait d’union” between tradition, emotional intensity and compositional dynamism.
