Antonio Calderara
Horizontal Lines - Screen Print by Antonio Calderara - 1978

1978

About the Item

Image dimensions: 18 x 18 cm. Horizontal Lines is an original colored serigraph on paper, realized by the Italian artist Antonio Calderara (1903-1978) and published in 1978 by La Nuova Foglio, a publishing house of Macerata, Italy. The original print is glued to a white cardboard sheet of square format. Numbered in pencil and signed on the back and in pencil by Carmela Calderara under the print signature of the artist, this written applies to a certificate of authenticity. Edition of 99 prints. Our serigraph representing a light green geometrical composition of square format punctuated regularly by yellow and blue horizontal stripes is a result of the lifetime search 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 embellish your house. 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?
