Luis Tomasello – Lumiere noire unique V/X, 2011 – Mixed Media

Wood and plastics. Signed in marker at the back. Unique piece out of the edition.

Lumière Noire unique V/X (2011) by Luis Tomasello is a unique work in wood and plastics, measuring 40 × 40 × 4 cm. The composition consists of a uniform grid of matte black squares, with select elements subtly angled or recessed to interact differently with light. This creates a delicate yet dynamic interplay of highlights and shadows across the surface, making the piece shift in appearance as the viewer’s position changes. True to Tomasello’s kinetic and optical art, the work transforms minimal geometry into an active perceptual field. Signed in marker on the back, it is the only example in its edition.

Luis Tomasello (Argentina, 1915–2014) was an Argentine artist renowned for his contributions to kinetic and optical art. His signature 'Atmosphères chromoplastiques' series features white reliefs that manipulate light and shadow to create dynamic visual effects. Tomasello's innovative use of color reflection and geometric forms has been exhibited internationally, solidifying his legacy in contemporary art.

Medium

Mixed Media

Mixed MediaMixed media refers to artwork that incorporates more than one medium within a single piece. Unlike multimedia art, which combines distinct forms of visual art and often includes elements like sound, video, or digital media, mixed media focuses on combining traditional art materials, such as paint, ink, and collage. Mixed media art allows artists to achieve a wide range of effects and textures by layering and blending different materials.

I don’t do anything. The light does it for me.

What is the Zero Movement?

ZERO was an art movement founded by Otto Piene and Heinz Mack, aiming to develop into a large international and cross-border movement. The name ZERO originated from a magazine founded by Heinz Mack in 1957, which became a platform for the group's ideas. The magazine was published for several years before ceasing in 1967. The ZERO movement sought to create a new beginning in art, emphasizing light, space, and movement, and became influential in post-war European art.
