Narrative description:
Original work by Alessandro Alteo, characterized by a red monochrome surface that hosts a circular shape capable of creating a delicate play of light and shadow.
The work ideally fits within the tradition of extroflective research initiated in the 1960s by masters such as Agostino Bonalumi, Enrico Castellani, and Paolo Scheggi, artists who transcended the traditional concept of painting by transforming the canvas into a living, vibrant body, where light continuously interacts with the surface.
At the same time, Alteo develops a language that dialogues with the rigor of American minimalism (Donald Judd) and with the perceptual investigation of Op Art (Victor Vasarely), without forgetting the evocative power of Yves Klein's monochromes.
His personal figure lies in the synthesis of geometry and lyricism, where the circular element becomes a universal sign, a visual archetype that invites silent and meditative contemplation.
This work thus represents an ideal bridge between the great era of analytical and extroverted Italian art and a contemporary, current, and refined sensibility.
Stylistic insight:
This three-dimensional painting by Alteo belongs to a refined and cultivated tradition, which has its roots in the post-World War II period, when Italian artists were seeking a new spirituality of form. Painting became real space, living surface, theater of invisible forces.
Today, Alteo renews this language in a contemporary key: its monochromes are not nostalgic, but radically current, ready to engage with architecture, minimalist design, and the sensibility of the modern collector.

Obey, Santicri, Sagrasse, following general trends and personal taste.
