One-color etching on a 5-color silk-screen background on Japanese paper - Signed by the artist on the front // Scudo 3 by Mimmo Paladino, a 1999 mixed media print, is a striking circular composition that blends geometric abstraction with a single delicate etching of a human face. The background consists of bold, vibrant shapes in red, green, blue, yellow, and black, arranged in a seemingly random yet balanced pattern that evokes symbols or abstract codes. In contrast, the face, etched in fine lines at the center, adds a human element to the otherwise structured and abstract design, creating a contrast between the organic and the geometric. The use of Japanese paper enhances the tactile quality of the print. Paladino’s work is often associated with the Transavanguardia movement, where he blends modern abstraction with elements of ancient and symbolic forms, and this piece exemplifies his ability to harmonize disparate visual elements.

What is Transvanguardia ?
Artwork by Francesco Clemente

What is Transvanguardia ?

Transavanguardia is the Italian version of Neo-Expressionism, referring to an art movement that emerged in Italy and other parts of Western Europe during the 1970s and 1980s. The term translates to beyond the avant-garde. Transavanguardia arose as a reaction against the dominance of conceptual art, reintroducing emotion and reviving painting as a primary medium. The movement marked a return to mythic imagery and figurative art, celebrating a rediscovery of traditional forms and themes in a contemporary context.
