Beppe Sesia (1916-?) - Senza titolo

For sale: a lot of 3 unique wooden works by the artist Beppe Sesia with a frame very likely crafted directly by the painter himself on the occasion of an exhibition (visible from the numbering on the back). Measurements of the three pieces visible by scrolling through the various photos.

Beppe Sesia (1916 – 2002) was an Italian artist and sculptor associated with the movements of abstract art, late-century avant-garde painting, and kinetic or programmed art. His artistic research stood out for the rigorous use of geometry, the exploration of gesture, and the integration of innovative industrial materials for the era.

Main characteristics of his work Geometric abstraction: He focused much of his work on minimalist graphic compositions, often using serial elements such as dots and lines (for example in the works Ventuno punti rossi and dieci punti neri or Due punti bianchi). Light sculptures: During the 1970s he experimented with light and three-dimensionality. One of his best-known series is Light on Black Wall (1971), composed of light sculptures made in steel, acrylic, and fluorescent tubes.

He worked not only on canvas, but also by applying cardboard, metallic elements, wood, and mixed media on corrugated cardboard.

In April 1968 the historic Turin Contemporary Art Gallery "Il Punto," directed by Remo Pastori, dedicated to him a celebrated solo exhibition presented by art critic Aldo Passoni.

His works periodically appear at Italian and international auctions of modern and contemporary art, including Sant'Agostino Casa d'Aste, Meeting Art, Wannenes and Studio d'Arte Borromeo.
Stamps, pochoir and silkscreens by the artist are preserved and traded by galleries specialized in 20th-century graphics, such as the international platform Place des Arts.
