Reading 1984

"Reading" is a 1984 work by Italian artist Valerio Adami. Adami is known for his distinctive style, characterized by flat, graphic forms and bold color palettes. The artwork portrays a reclining figure, possibly asleep, with a bird perched above. The work's stark simplicity and graphic quality suggest a focus on form and composition, aligning with Adami's Pop Art influences. The subject of reading, often associated with introspection and contemplation, adds another layer of meaning to the piece.
