Carla Accardi
Integrazione rosso nero, 1958-1960

It was a desire to confront myself with color, as the truth of painting; all the black and white had been a radicalization; I wanted to find a color that was as radical as black and white.

I can't stand the repetition of figures that don't hold tension, while I love repetition as recovery.
