Enzo Cucchi Uomini 1989 etching with aquatint of glowing humanoid figure in earthy tones with white specks and illuminated core

Uomini (1989) by Enzo Cucchi is a monumental etching and aquatint that embodies the artist’s distinct blend of neo-expressionism and symbolism. Measuring an imposing 270 x 75 cm, the work features a ghostly human figure rendered in earthy, atmospheric tones that evoke ancient cave paintings or spiritual apparitions. The elongated form stands upright, its outline glowing faintly against a textured background, with a luminous white area suggesting an internal light or vital force at the figure’s center. Surrounding specks of white hint at cosmic or mystical elements, reinforcing Cucchi’s recurring themes of transcendence, the body, and the metaphysical. The figure’s raw, almost primal execution and towering scale lend it a haunting presence, bridging the mythic and the contemporary. This print is part of an edition of 60, showcasing Cucchi’s ability to channel narrative, emotion, and mystery through pared-down, evocative form.

What is ‘light and space’?

The Light and Space Movement refers to loosely affiliated art movements connected to minimalism, geometric abstraction, and op art that originated in Southern California in the 1960s. Greatly influenced by artist John McLaughlin, these artists focused on sensory phenomena such as light, perception, and space as central elements of their work. They also incorporated cutting-edge technologies from the aerospace and engineering industries to develop light-filled and sensuous objects, creating immersive experiences that emphasize the viewer's perception.
