Ritmi Plastici 1911 — Fine Art

Ritmi Plastici 1911 shows a field of repeated shapes laid out in rows. The forms sit side by side with small gaps between them. The title points to a study of rhythm made from simple plastic forms. Carlo Carra built this kind of image by painting flat shapes in a clear order.

The picture comes as a fine art print set in a frame with a back panel. The flat surface keeps the repeated shapes even and the built frame holds it ready to hang on a wall.

A copy rests on the wall near the foot of the stairs where the light comes in slanting across the steps. From the bottom landing you notice the repeated shapes lined up in rows before you rise to the next floor.
