Biomorphic shapes in shades of fuchsia, orange, blue, green and blue are painted on fibreglass paper. The colours are fluorescent and the forms seem to move, almost like cellular organisms examined through a microscope. The work was produced late in the artist’s career and reveals his lifelong interest in the world of science and biology.mGiulio Turcato took part in the movements of Italian abstract art characterised by a marked degree of social and political commitment. From Forma 1 to the Fronte Nuovo delle Arti, Gruppo degli Otto and Continuità, the artist found himself, in the 1950s, in the opposite artistic camp from Mario Nigro, who focused, above all, on an analytical examination of the elements of painting. A common interest in the sciences and above all in matter and its components did, however, bring the two artists closer together in the mature phase of their careers.
