Geometric Abstract Painting. Early 1960s

Geometric abstract painting.

Early 1960s.

Dimensions: 64cm x 54cm with frame

Technique: oil on canvas with material surface.
A work of great expressiveness and decorative effect, where the geometry of the shapes transmits energy and the lively and irregular surface gives a more tactile tone, playing with space and three-dimensionality.
The painting comes from Northern Italy and was part of a Venetian collection, which contained several Italian post-war paintings, some signed and others unsigned.
Not signed.

In the same collection some of the frames, all similar in construction, still had the label of the frame workshop. This suggests that our painting also has a wooden frame with glass, made in the 1960s in Venice, probably by Ermanno Orler, famous framer of many world-famous artists of that period (he was active in Venice from 1958 to 1968). The Orler family soon became very active in the ancient and modern art market.
