About the Item

# Lucio Perna - "Surrogated Cities 310" ## 40 x 40 x 10 cm Mixed Media This exceptional work by acclaimed contemporary artist Lucio Perna represents a pinnacle achievement in his celebrated "Surrogated Cities" series. Executed in the mesmerizing Klein-like blue that has become Perna's signature, this piece demonstrates his masterful exploration of urban metaphor through pure chromatic intensity. The work's architectural composition—featuring bold vertical divisions within its compact yet commanding 40x40cm format—creates a powerful meditation on contemporary urban experience. The substantial 10cm depth adds sculptural presence, allowing the luminous blue pigment to capture and reflect light with extraordinary dynamism. Each panel pulses with subtle tonal variations, revealing Perna's sophisticated understanding of color theory and surface treatment. With prestigious exhibition history including BAF Art Fair and a significant solo presentation at Almach Art Gallery Milano, this work has garnered critical attention and scholarly recognition, being featured in Perna's latest monographic publication. For the discerning 1stdibs collector, "Surrogated Cities 310" offers exceptional investment potential—combining museum-quality execution, established provenance, and the growing international recognition of Perna's innovative practice. This piece represents both aesthetic sophistication and market opportunity in contemporary Italian art.
