Multiple mosaic mounted on fiberglass. - Signed and numbered by the artist on a copper plate on the back. // Vortice by Piero Dorazio, created in 1989, is a vibrant mosaic mounted on fiberglass that features a dynamic spiral design. The artwork consists of small, colorful tesserae arranged in a swirling pattern, moving from the center outward, creating a sense of motion and depth. The spiral is composed of vibrant hues—reds, pinks, oranges, and whites—set against a deep blue background. This contrast between the bright, energetic colors and the rich blue backdrop intensifies the visual impact of the piece, drawing the viewer into the vortex-like composition. The mosaic’s textural quality, enhanced by the reflective surfaces of the tesserae, adds an additional layer of complexity and movement to the artwork. Signed and numbered by the artist on a copper plate on the back, this work exemplifies Dorazio’s fascination with abstraction and movement.

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.
