Geometrie sospese is a limited edition original Italian aquaforte and mixed-media artwork on high‑quality paper, 23 × 16.5 cm, from 1989, signed by hand by Walter Valentini, featuring white, gold, grey and black tones and depicting an architectural abstract‑geometric composition.
Description from the seller
Title: Geometries Suspended
Original work on paper characterized by a refined abstract-geometric composition, in which linear marks, grids and circular forms dialog with relief-like material elements.
The composition is articulated on two levels: in the upper part freer and more organic shapes prevail, enriched by interventions in white and gold tones; in the lower part emerges a geometric structure built through a dense network of lines. Of particular interest is the contrast between the grey surface of the matrix and the light paper, left visible and used itself as an element of the composition.
Artist: Walter Valentini
Nationality: Italian
Title: Geometries suspended — descriptive title attributed in the absence of a known title
Technique: intaglio technique and material/multi-material interventions on paper — to be specified based on the indications present on the work
Signed
P.a.
Support: high‑grammage paper with irregular margins/deckle edge and relief elements
Provenance: private Italian collection [if correct]
Documentation: [possible documentation available]
Conditions: the work presents overall in good conservation conditions. From photographic documentation no tears or significant losses are evident. The irregular margins and the pronounced materiality of the paper appear consistent with the nature of the work. Please refer to the photographs, which constitute an integral part of the description, for a detailed assessment of the conservation status.
A work of notable visual impact, in which the rigor of geometric construction is lightened by the material and gestural component and by the golden interventions.
Shipping: the work will be carefully packed and protected for transport.
