Aldo Nigro: Form and Expression
This website presents a selection of works by Aldo Nigro (1930–2019), an Italian artist whose career spanned from the 1960s until 2019. His artistic exploration, ranging from Informal Art to abstraction, gradually evolved into a personal style in which the “continuous line” became the defining element of the image, spanning painting, graphic art, and sculpture.
My hand is an obedient dog
It does what I ask
Even if sometimes it doesn't understand
But there are things it does
As if it already knew
Why it does them
The hand that precedes the intention
The hand that does good
What it does not yet know
This great wonder
Of the hand that goes
