A CATALOGUE ON NOVELLI FOR Galerie Di Meo by Communic'Art Edition
For Gastone Novelli’s exhibition, which will take place from October 10th to November 29th 2008, Galerie Di Meo has entrusted Communic’Art with the creation of a catalogue.
The disciplined lyricism of Novelli’s paintings and drawings refers to the linguistic avant-garde experimentation in which the artist took interest.
This research appears in his work through text fragments, signs and irregular shapes traced on abstract surfaces which are often white, symbolizing nothingness as a gateway to liberation.
Novelli has devoted his work to the creation of a pictural language in between abstraction and writing.
Born in Vienna, Austria, in 1925 and deceased in Rome in 1968, Gastone Novelli belongs to the italian avant-garde of the 50’s and 60’s. His work can be related to diverse artistic movements such as Action Painting and Surrealist Automatism.
