Nuvolo (Giorgio Ascani)

Primavera Inoltrata

1955

Nuvolo's *Primavera Inoltrata* (1955) is a richly textured mixed media work that exemplifies the Italian artist's innovative approach to surface and materiality during the postwar era. The composition evokes the sensory abundance of late spring through layered forms and tactile elements embedded within the canvas, creating a dynamic interplay between surface and depth. This work reflects Nuvolo's engagement with the Arte Nucleare movement and its emphasis on expressive, experimental approaches to painting.
