Contemporary painting signed by Luca Caccioni, mixed media, 1991.

Mixed techniques on paper. Title at the bottom left. Artist's stamp on the back with title, date, and signature. Caccioni, an artist born, trained, and still living in Bologna, is one of the protagonists of a generation that has now reached a definitive linguistic maturity and occupies a leading position in the contemporary art scene. His research primarily uses unusual materials such as acetates, PVC, and, more recently, stage decorations from 19th-century theatrical works, on which he intervenes by painting forms derived from personal memory and suggestions from different cultures and historical periods. A recurring element in Luca Caccioni's work is writing, a self-signifying sign that outlines the work and is capable of narrating thoughts; by working through layering, the images are constructed by adding or subtracting colour on the different supports. Framed work.
