Turi Simeti - Original Work on Paper

1989

This refined and conceptually elegant artwork by Turi Simeti is an original embossing on paper and a characteristic example of his minimalist visual language.

The work is signed lower right “Turi Simeti”, and dated “10-02-89”.

The composition is defined by two subtle, relief-like oval forms—the “gocce” (drops)—which gently emerge from the paper surface. This creates a restrained yet powerful interplay of light, shadow, and material, while the nearly monochrome surface emphasizes structure, repetition, and rhythm. This minimal intervention results in a constantly shifting visual experience depending on the light, giving the work a meditative and spatial quality.

Professionally framed in our own frame-shop, mounted on linen, floating in a custom-made, acid-free thick linen passe-partout and presented in a deep, handcrafted white wooden frame, with Plexiglas® Optical HC, (UV protection, scratch resistant, and minimal reflection).

Framed size approx. 47 × 47 cm.

Turi Simeti (1929–2021) was a key figure in the Italian avant-garde and associated with the ZERO movement. He is known for his exploration of the canvas as an object, where relief and repetition create a quiet, rhythmic visual field aligned with postwar abstraction.

His work has been exhibited internationally and is held in major museum collections including the Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea, Museo del Novecento, Museion, Wilhelm Hack Museum, and Museu de Arte Moderna.

Today, his works are valued for their timeless and sculptural quality, holding a strong position in the international art market, with growing demand among collectors of minimalist art and conceptual art.
