Achrome 1962

Piero Manzoni's 1962 "Achrome" is a prime example of Minimalist art. The work consists of a white canvas with a vertical band of small, raised, white shapes. The minimal, monochromatic composition forces viewers to focus on the physicality of the work itself, engaging with the texture and the subtle variations in the white surface. The piece exemplifies Manzoni's interest in pushing the boundaries of traditional art materials and exploring the concept of artistic creation.
