Mixed media on paper. // Barcelona II (N8) by Jannis Kounellis, created in 2003, is a mixed media work on paper that exemplifies the artist's raw, expressive approach to materials and composition. The piece is dominated by thick, rough black strokes that form an abstract grid-like structure, filling much of the surface with dense, textured marks. The chaotic, almost oppressive black forms contrast with patches of exposed white paper, creating a stark and powerful interplay of light and dark. The inscription N8 at the top adds a cryptic element, perhaps hinting at a sequence or a symbolic meaning within the work. Known for his association with Arte Povera, Kounellis often incorporated non-traditional materials and bold gestures in his art, emphasizing the physicality of his process. This piece evokes a sense of confinement or enclosure, inviting viewers to interpret its intense and visceral energy.

What is Performance Art?
Performance Art is a genre of fine art that is traditionally interdisciplinary, involving various art forms. It can be scripted or unscripted, random or carefully orchestrated, spontaneous, or meticulously planned, with or without audience participation. Performance Art can be presented live or through media, with the artist either present or absent. It typically involves four basic elements: space, the performer’s body or presence through a medium, time, and the relationship between performer and audience. The artwork consists of actions performed by an individual or group in a specific time and space.
