THE ARTWORK
In Achille Perilli’s La stella polare, small marks and linear structures gather on the right side of the sheet, leaving broad light space beside them. A freer presence occupies the upper area, while below appears a construction of intersections and frames.
The 1965 etching alternates lightness and concentration, keeping the drawing’s mobility visible. The title suggests a point of orientation, yet the composition invites uncertain paths and open relationships. White is more than a margin: it participates in the tension between forms and amplifies each small intervention.
