THE ARTWORK
In Marco Gastini’s Lettera D, the light field hosts a discontinuous network of small marks. Some draw close, others remain isolated, constructing a surface that changes with viewing distance. From afar the whole predominates; close up, the individual interventions emerge.
The 1974 screenprint belongs to the portfolio A,B,C,D,E-F. The image rests its strength on restraint and suspension, letting white accompany each trace. The composition seeks no dominant centre: it invites exploration of subtle relationships, in which even the smallest shift changes the balance of space.
