About this artwork
This work is inspired by Ron Carter's song "Quiet Times".
This canvas employs only three colors: black, off-white, and an intense sunny yellow. This perfectly reflects the logic of the Third Plane trio: Ron Carter on double bass, Herbie Hancock on piano, and Tony Williams on drums. Three voices, nothing more. No frills. Each element occupies its space with quiet authority.
The blocks of color are clearly delineated, but the edges of the yellow… in the lower right reveal the painter's hand—the visible brushstroke that slightly overflows. The Penguin Guide to Jazz hails the album as "Carter's most impressive performance under his own name." This tension between formal rigor and spontaneous impulse is precisely what we see in the canvas: the geometry holds, but the painter's hand remains present.

« My research takes the direction of "parasitic" minimalism. I claim the expression of a rigorous geometric structure endangered by the soft and hazardous trace of the brush. »
Originally from the tranquil scenery of Switzerland, Patrick Piccinelli set forth on an enriching academic journey that took him to the distinguished corridors of ECAL (University of Art and Design, Lausanne, Switzerland), a stronghold of artistic brilliance on the global frontier. The respected tradition of flawless typography for which Switzerland is famed, coupled with the deep-seated influences of Swiss graphic design, known for its austere, minimalistic, and refined aesthetics, significantly guided Piccinelli’s artistic path. His palette is firmly rooted in geometric minimalism, a stylistic reverberation reminiscent of the illustrious “Zürich movement.” This era of artistic zeal was pioneered by notable figures such as Max Bill, Richard Paul Lohse, and Verena Loewenberg, luminaries who were the frontrunners of geometric or constructed artistry. His works have recently been acquired by collectors in the United States, Japan and Europe.
