235 - DADAMAINO, born EDOARDA EMILIA MAINO_x001D_ 1930 – Milan – 2004 *Recherche du Couleur*. Composition consisting of ten striped squares with color gradients. Frieze consisting of 10 oil paintings on wood, 1967. All signed on the reverse (except “N. 8 Violet sur Orange”), dated, titled in French, marked with the artist’s address, numbered (in sequence), and marked with an upward-pointing arrow. Each 20 x 20 cm. Overall dimensions including frame: 25.5 x 216 cm. Some have tiny, faint spots. Dadamaino was one of the most significant figures of the Italian avant-garde of the 1950s and 1960s. She began as a self-taught artist in the early 1950s. While floral still lifes were initially a common motif, her artistic perspective shifted after visiting an exhibition of works by Lucio Fontana. She was also influenced by Piero Manzoni and forged connections with representatives of the most important art movements of the 1960s, such as the ZERO group. In 1961, she founded the “Gruppo Punto” with Antonio Calderara and three other artists; the group was influenced by Lucio Fontana and remained active until 1966. “In 1967, Dadamaino focused particularly on chromatic interferences and explored the interrelationships between the seven colors of the spectrum, as well as white, black, and chestnut brown” (AOW/AKL online). Each piece is mounted on a stretcher bar and arranged together as a frieze within a frame. [ms]
