Original colour silkscreen. Hand-signed, dated and numbered. // This elegant silkscreen by Piero Dorazio presents a striking blue elliptical form composed of interlocking diagonal bands against a white ground. The tightly woven ribbons of varying blue tonalities — from cobalt to cerulean to navy — create a three-dimensional illusion that seems to gently curve into space. The ellipse's luminous centre and darker perimeter generate a sense of pulsating depth that exemplifies Dorazio's lifelong investigation into the spatial properties of colour. A refined and meditative work from the artist's late period, printed in an edition of ninety plus proofs.

What is late modernism?
Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
