Carla Accardi *
(Trapani 1924–2014 Rome)
Untitled, 1954, signed and dated; signed and dated again on the reverse, tempera (casein) on paper laid down on canvas, 68 x 32 cm, framed
This work is registered in the Archivio Accardi Sanfilippo, Rome and is accompanied by a photo certificate signed by the artist, Studio Accardi, Rome
Provenance:
Sale Nuova Brerarte, Milan, 11 December 1990, lot 71
European Private Collection (acquired from the above)
Note:
The paper was laid down on canvas directly by the artist as evident also from the signature and the date on the reverse.
Yes, 1954 was a critical year, but my first works featuring the sign, which I made on paper, were born in 1953. The meaning behind this choice, my surrender to the sign, which was basic at first and structural later, no doubt emerged from the idea artists have always had about contemporary art, about culture in their time.
Although I wasn’t studying mathematics or anthropology, Structuralism was a topical discovery all the same, something that exhisted in the Western world.
I bestowed an image on the Structuralist vision of the world; a visual image that bore all the components: events, the aggregation of signs were repeated in my paintings with phenomenic variations: but always faithful to themselves and repeatable.
