About the Item

Explosive Creativity: Guido Coletti Signed 1970s/80s Gunpowder & Mixed Media Art Brace yourself for a truly arresting work by Italian artist Guido Coletti - a dynamic mixed-media piece where traditional materials collide with the raw energy of gunpowder. This signed artwork from the 1970s/80s is a testament to Coletti's experimental spirit, transforming canvas, wood, and paper into a vibrant, textured landscape of controlled chaos and profound artistic statement. The audacious use of gunpowder sets this piece apart, offering a rare glimpse into the more avant-garde currents of late 20th-century Italian art. Presented on a brilliant, sun-drenched yellow background, a constellation of circular forms bursts forth. Each "eruption" is uniquely textured, bearing the distinct scorch marks and transformative touch of gunpowder, interspersed with fragments of paper that hint at deconstructed narratives or fleeting thoughts. This is not just an artwork to be seen, but to be felt-a visceral experience of creation and destruction, captured in a singular, compelling composition. Housed in a clean, modern white frame, its impact is both immediate and enduring. Artist: Guido Coletti (Italian, Friulian School) Era: Circa 1970s-1980s - A bold statement from a period of artistic experimentation. Authenticity: Signed by Guido Coletti (Seller to confirm exact placement of signature if needed).
