About this artwork
Structural correspondences:
This abstract work establishes a dialogue between the music of John Cage and my painting. The visual composition translates Cage's principles into a plastic form. Seven zones are observed: the blocks of color (bright yellow, orange, deep black, gray-blue) and the intervening spaces create a segmentation that evokes Cage's seven haikus.
Chance and emptiness:
Each section possesses its own density and silence, like the… brief, spaced-out movements of the musical piece. Cage incorporated aleatoric elements into his composition. Here, the fine lines that traverse the work seem unpredictable, almost accidental. The orange splashes that dissolve the boundary between yellow and black evoke that element of indeterminacy so dear to the composer. The large empty spaces (beige, white) function like the essential silences in Cage's work—not as absence, but as active presence.

« 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.
