The Style of Painter Gastone Biggi
Continui Series
The Continui series represents his first foray into abstract art, an intensely personal and unique study that took him beyond his Informal phase.
Gastone Biggi believed we could not disassociate painting from music. As we read in his notes, he painted the Continui series horizontally like a huge musical score. The master consciously gave his paintings continuity over hours and days, Like a true musical performance.
Variabili Series
In the 1970s Continui transformed into Variabili and dots became the main subject of his paintings.
“Instead of imagining or conceiving his paintings, Biggi is constantly operative, acknowledging, and communicating. He weaves patterns that would always be the same if they could, only they cannot, because hands cannot make the same mark twice and identity does not exist…” – Giulio Carlo Argan, 1971
