Lot Essay

’What is a painting?
A painting is a field of forces, the arena where its author’s impulses all come together, there to be transformed, re-formed into a movement of color. Energies, which the painter has received out of the fullness of the Universe, are now directed into channels opened to the spirit of the onlooker.’
Otto Piene (A. Glibota, Otto Piene, Villorba 2011, p. 109)
