Untitled, 1982

This three-part edition by Mimmo Paladino exemplifies the artist’s distinctive blend of the mythic and the mysterious. Each print in the series reveals a dreamlike composition drawn in Paladino’s expressive, symbolic visual language – featuring abstracted figures, fragmented forms, and allusions to ancient rituals or storytelling traditions. Rendered in a limited but bold palette of black, red, blue, and grey, the lithographs evoke a sense of both immediacy and timelessness. Paladino’s use of layered texture and enigmatic imagery reflects his roots in the Transavanguardia movement, emphasizing emotion, symbolism, and narrative over rationality or formalism. Together, the three works form a poetic and open-ended visual sequence that invites contemplation rather than resolution.
