Description from the seller

### FRANCO COSTALONGA (1933–2019)
**Illusioni, 2003**

**Original artwork – Mixed media on canvas – 30 × 30 cm**

An original work by Franco Costalonga, a significant figure in Italian Optical, Kinetic and Programmed Art of the second half of the twentieth century.

Created in 2003, this composition features a vibrant green background animated by concentric circles, squares and multicoloured triangles. The geometric elements are arranged in rhythmic patterns, creating a striking sense of optical movement, depth and chromatic vibration.

The composition reflects Costalonga's exploration of visual perception and the relationship between colour, geometry and space.
