Beppe Sesia (1916 – 2002) was an Italian artist and sculptor associated with movements of abstract art, avant-garde painting of the second half of the 20th century, and kinetic or programmed art. His artistic research stood out for the rigorous use of geometries, the exploration of the sign, and the integration of innovative industrial materials for the era.

Main characteristics of his work Geometric abstraction: He focused much of his work on minimal graphic compositions, often using serial elements such as dots and lines (for example in the works Twenty-one red dots and ten black dots or Two white dots).

Light sculptures: During the 1970s he experimented with light and three-dimensionality. One of his most notable series is Light on Black Wall (1971), consisting of luminous sculptures made of steel, acrylic glass, and fluorescent tubes.

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

In April 1968 the historic contemporary art gallery "Il Punto" in Turin, directed by Remo Pastori, dedicated a famous solo show to him presented by art critic Aldo Passoni.

His works periodically appear in Italian and international modern and contemporary art auctions, including Sant'Agostino Casa d'Aste, Meeting Art, Wannenes, and Studio d'Arte Borromeo.

Stamps, pochoir, and screen prints by the artist are preserved and traded by galleries specializing in twentieth-century graphics, such as the international platform Place des Arts."} }{
