Nel Grigio II (Im Grau II). 1976.
Oil on canvas.
Signed, dated, titled in Italian and German, and inscribed with a dedication on the reverse of the stretcher. This is dated and inscribed “Todi.” Stamped with the Studio Piero Dorazio stamps on the stretcher, where it is handwritten “166". 44 x 84 cm (17.3 x 33 in). [CH].
• From the “Le nebulose” series of works from the 1970s.
• At a time marked by space exploration, Dorazio addresses a vision of the universe fragmented into tiny particles.
• A fascinating interplay of repetition, sequence, and omission: with the lower left corner of the picture, the artist refers to the original emptiness of the cosmos.
• Paintings from the late 1970s are part of important museum collections, including the Kunstmuseum Stuttgart, the Pinakothek der Moderne, Munich, and the Albright-Knox Art Gallery in Buffalo, New York.
Accompanied by a photo certificate, issued by the Archivio Piero Dorazio in March, 2026. The work is documented in the Archivio Piero Dorazio, Milan.
PROVENANCE: Private collection, Munich.
Private collection, southern Germany (inherited from the above in 2015).
