Gianni Dova, No title, screen printing, 50x70 cm

Screen printing created by Gianni Dova, who adhered to italian Spatialism and Nuclear art. The artwork represents a moving scene: in a mountain landscape in the background, a man is running on an horse to a medieval city, of which you can see blue towers. There are no spatial references: the man seems to be suspended. In this work you can also note the influence of artists that adhered to Spatialism, who created on canvas constructions that demonstrate the existence of a three-dimensionality in the world. Their aim was to give a new life to the energies that animated the postwar period, when bore a new awareness of the existence of natural forces that are hidden like particles and neutrons that pressed with force on the "old" canvas. The colours are abstracted and intense. The work is signed by the artist bottom right and marked "P.A." (Prova d'Artista, Artwork) bottom left.
