Lithograph, signed by hand, numbered // Contrario by Piero Dorazio is a vibrant lithograph that embodies the artist’s fascination with color, movement, and geometric abstraction. Created in 1970, this limited edition print features dynamic, overlapping angular shapes in bold primary and secondary colors—red, blue, green, and yellow—layered to create a sense of rhythm and depth. The composition feels alive with energy, with each color interacting to form a vibrant, almost musical cadence across the canvas. Dorazio’s use of transparency and layering invokes a sense of motion, inviting the viewer to explore the relationships between color, shape, and spatial tension. This signed and numbered work exemplifies Dorazio's commitment to exploring pure abstraction and the emotive power of color.
