Antonio Calderara
26 Squares - Original Screen Print by Antonio Calderara - 1973

1973

About the Item

26 squares is an original colored serigraph on paper, realized by the Italian artist Antonio Calderara (1903-1978) and published in 1973 by La Nuova Foglio, a publishing house of Macerata, Italy. Numbered in pencil on lower left margin, our original print is from an edition of 99 prints. Twenty-six squares of the same dimensions are represented with two different tones in a big straw yellow square of foreground, it is thus evident the formal artistic research of an artist that throughout his life had tried to answer the question: what is the painting?, aligning with the searches of the main European aniconic masters like Max Bill, Mondrian, Albers, Mavigner. In excellent conditions, this original print could decor your house walls. Antonio Calderara (Abbiategrasso, 1903 - Vacciago, 1978) Self-taught and changeable artist, he has a figurative debut to then approach the artistic movement of the Italian twentieth century. In 1954 the study of Mondrian's work led him first to the study of light and then to a progressive loss of the landscape reference, increasingly moving towards an aniconic expressive form that saw him participate in European research, above all of German origin. In his autobiography he traces the first non-figurative painting to 1959. Throughout his life, almost entirely spent in isolation near Lake Orta, he wondered about the role of light and color in an attempt to answer the question: what is painting?
