Paolo minoli, born in cantù (como), graduated as a master of art in 1961 from the art institute of his hometown, where he taught until 1978. Since the 1970s, he has developed a rigorous research focus on color, rhythm, and geometric structures, participating in numerous exhibitions dedicated to geometric abstraction and analytical painting. His work explores serial relationships and calibrated color patterns, distinctive elements of his artistic language. “verso cose o persone lontane” is an acrylic painting on canvas measuring 60 × 60 cm. The work features a sequence of horizontal bands organized into modules of varying width and color. The areas of color follow one another according to a controlled rhythm, creating a linear visual progression that reflects the artist's principles of seriality, variation, and geometric construction. the alternation between light, dark, and more intense hues guides the gaze through the composition, suggesting a movement that engages with the theme evoked by the title: a projection toward the distant, articulated through color and form. the work is in excellent condition. The signature, date (1989), and title are on the back of the canvas, accompanied by the original caption: “paolo minoli – 1989 – poema tempo a, tempo b – … verso cose o persone lontane … – poem a-b … towards things or persons far away.” this piece has an attribution mark, i am sure that it is completely authentic and take full responsibility for any authenticity issues arising from misattribution
