AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Artist: Giovanni Contardi
Title: Chromatic Modules III (Concentric Structure)
Year: 2026
Medium: Rubik’s Cube mosaic (wall sculpture)
Materials: 48 original Rubik’s Cubes, MDF panel, archival industrial adhesive
Dimensions: 45.8 × 34.3 × 7.8 cm
Edition: Unique work
Signature: Hand-signed on the reverse.

Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity with archival hologram.
Ready to hang. Professionally packed for shipping.

Chromatic Modules III continues a series of unique wall sculptures built around concentric structures and chromatic modules. Colour acts as a structural element, creating rhythm, balance, and spatial tension within the rigid grid of the cubes.

Seen from the front, the composition appears ordered and almost architectural. Viewed from the sides, the depth of the cubes shifts the work from image to object.

Previous works from the Chromatic Modules series were sold to private collectors earlier in 2026.

Giovanni Contardi (b. 1994) is an Italian artist internationally recognised for his mosaics created entirely from original Rubik’s Cubes. His installations are permanently exhibited at the Rossini National Museum in Italy and at Disney Hotel New York – The Art of Marvel at Disneyland Paris.

His work was also mentioned by Ernő Rubik, inventor of the Rubik’s Cube, in his autobiographical book Cubed: The Puzzle of Us All (2020).

Selected works, installations, and process documentation are shared on Instagram under the name JVENB.
