This Nerone & Patuzzi zinc panel, produced in the seventies, stands as a remarkable example of artistic expression. Crafted by Nerone Cecciarelli and Giancarlo Patuzzi, masters of working with forms of zinc, this piece showcases a beautiful example of that. The zinc is skillfully treated with acid, resulting in an interplay of light across its surfaces, where smooth and shiny areas contrast with rough and dark textures.

Design

The head panel's design features lines that meticulously trace furrows and define distinct surfaces, each possessing a stark and essential geometry. The deliberate arrangement of shapes creates a harmonious composition that captures the viewer's attention. The artist's technique produces a relief effect, adding depth and dimension to the forms on the panel.

Within this abstract artwork, one cannot help but notice echoes of avant-garde pioneers like Joan Miró and Picasso. The high level of abstraction invites contemplation and interpretation, as viewers engage with the interplay of shapes, textures, and the interplay of light and shadow. Please note a signature can be found in the middle of this item.

Condition
