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.

1946, Palmi, Italy Lucio Perna arrived in Milan in the late 1970s and came into contact with Remo Brindisi, Ernesto Treccani and Aligi Sassu. In March 1998, he founded the 'SYMBOLICUM' movement with Federico Honegger, Fabio Masimo Ulivieri and the poet and art critic PEDRO FIORI, the group's theoretician. With his most recent works, Perna traces a very personal research path that goes beyond the label of abstraction or informal appeal. In his works one can read a liberating gesture that tears and creates. From time to time he moves like a geologist or a topographer, declining emotions on the surfaces through tonal adjustments and modulated shifts in perspective. The space of the image expands like 'chromatic magic'. Structures are reduced to the essential. Signs, shapes, colours merge in his iconology into 'silent messages of words never spoken': a style-language made of silences. This expressive research brings Perna closer to the artistic-cultural movement "EMOTIONAL GEOGRAPHY", born in the United States at the beginning of this new century, of which Giuliana BRUNO, professor at Harvard, is the theorist, and which in Italy has been supported and popularised by the magazine "ARIA". Since 2019 she has been permanently collaborating with Almach Art Gallery for the presentation of new projects. Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
