Carton with plexiglass // Inter-Ena Cubo by Paolo Scheggi, created in 1965, is a striking exploration of depth and spatial perception through the use of mixed media. This work combines cardboard and plexiglass, arranged in a grid of sixteen circular cutouts, each half-filled with a contrasting gradient that creates an illusion of three-dimensionality. Scheggi’s use of layered materials invites viewers to engage with the interplay of light and shadow, evoking a sense of movement within the static form. The geometric repetition and muted tones contribute to a minimalist yet dynamic composition, typical of Scheggi’s engagement with spatial concepts during the 1960s. Measuring 41 cm by 41 cm with a depth of 11 cm, this piece exemplifies the artist’s commitment to challenging the boundaries between surface and space.

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.
