Paolo Minoli, an unusual, in some ways anachronistic artist: rediscovering a unique figure in the world of Italian 20th-century art.
A unique, unusual, even anachronistic artist, Paolo Minoli remains substantially extraneous to all currents of modern art. With an experimental approach focused on analysis of problems in the areas of color, geometry and rhythm, he has made three-dimensional exploration into a method for the creation, mostly on flat surfaces, of temporal qualities of articulation between background, void and painted structure. The catalogue documents the artist’s research, analyzing paintings and sculptures made from 1994 to 1997, with introduction and conclusion by Carlo Pirovano, including a complete overview of the career and critical commentary on the artist.
