SwissArtGallery · Documented identity
Arturo Vermi (1928–1988) is associated, in a sales notice, with his friends from Cenobio and a search for the sign as an expressive element. This indication situates his approach within a consideration of the expressive possibilities of the sign. In a statement reported in the same notice, he speaks of the search for simple and essential values, as well as of a space to be stripped back rather than filled. He describes compositions reduced to a horizontal line, sometimes to two, against an empty background, and gives this series the title “Paysages”. Among the documented works, Paesaggio is attributed to Vermi: this acrylic painting on canvas is signed and titled on the verso.
