Catalogue Note
" Since my youth, fertilized by the Bauhaus idea, I had felt a strong attraction to linear and corpuscular structures. 1953 saw the beginning of my black and white "kinetic" period, during which these structures were widely developed. From then on I began thinking of the possibility of creating a binary plastic language that could be introduced into an electronic circuit."
