Achrome 1958

Piero Manzoni's 1958 *Achrome* is a minimalist artwork that challenges traditional notions of painting. Composed of a white canvas, the work features horizontal lines created by pressing the canvas onto a wooden surface. The simplicity of the piece emphasizes the physicality of the materials, prompting viewers to contemplate the essence of art and the role of the artist. *Achrome* is a prime example of Manzoni's exploration of the "zero" concept, where art is reduced to its simplest form.
