About this artwork
I made another painting whose composition is similar to this one but with a dominant blue color (Silent Concerto no. 1).
This work on canvas evokes the music of Olivier Messaien.
This 20th century French composer is known for his approach to music, in which silence plays a crucial role.
Messiaen uses silence to structure his compositions. These silences allow listeners to contemplate the sounds that have just died away.
Similarly in my painting,… the use of smooth and unshaded geometric areas highlights the improvised drawings as well as the stains and splashes. For me these structured areas represent the silences of my painting.
For Olivier Messiaen, silence is as fundamental an element as sound in the construction of his musical universe. He considers it as a space of contemplation, mystery and transcendence, where the listener is invited to a spiritual as well as a musical experience.

« 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.
