wood and plastics

Luis Tomasello's Lumiere Noire is a striking mixed-media sculpture that uses the interplay of light and shadow to engage viewers in a subtle visual experience. The artwork is composed of a grid of square elements in a monochromatic black palette, creating an austere, minimalist aesthetic. Made from wood and plastics, the sculpture’s surface reflects light in varying intensities, producing shadows that change depending on the observer's angle and the light source. This 40 cm square piece exemplifies Tomasello’s mastery in transforming simple geometric patterns into dynamic visual experiences, emphasizing his exploration of kinetic and optical art through minimalist forms.

Luis Tomasello (Argentina, 1915–2014) was an Argentine artist renowned for his contributions to kinetic and optical art. His signature 'Atmosphères chromoplastiques' series features white reliefs that manipulate light and shadow to create dynamic visual effects. Tomasello's innovative use of color reflection and geometric forms has been exhibited internationally, solidifying his legacy in contemporary art.

wood and plasticsMixed media refers to artwork that incorporates more than one medium within a single piece. Unlike multimedia art, which combines distinct forms of visual art and often includes elements like sound, video, or digital media, mixed media focuses on combining traditional art materials, such as paint, ink, and collage. Mixed media art allows artists to achieve a wide range of effects and textures by layering and blending different materials.

What is constructivism?

Constructivism is an architectural and artistic philosophy of Russian origin that emerged as a rejection of the idea of autonomous art. The movement advocated for art to serve practical social purposes. Since its inception in 1919, Constructivism has evolved and significantly impacted 20th-century art movements, influencing major trends such as De Stijl and Bauhaus.
