Paolo Contin - Quello che resta delle parole

Paolo Contin WHAT REMAINS OF WORDS Acrylic painting - mixed media - hand-signed - 2026 Acrylic on canvas - 100 x 150 x 0.1 cm Certificate of authenticity with date and authentic signature on the back of the canvas. The painting will be shipped rolled inside a sturdy cardboard tube. Speditions to countries outside the European Community are not accepted due to high costs. PAOLO CONTIN has been developing a personal artistic path for over twenty-five years and it continues to evolve. Trained in design and active in the fashion world since 1980, he brings to painting a particular sensitivity to color, form, and compositional balance. Since 1999 he has exhibited his works, and in 2002 he held his first solo show in Padua. This has been followed by numerous exhibitions in Italy and abroad with appearances in Copenhagen, Munich, Paris, Brussels, Istanbul, Buenos Aires, and Sydney. Paolo Contin’s artistic path is also documented by his inclusion in the Mondadori Art Catalogue with related valuations. Over the years his works have also been published in Arte Mondadori magazine and in numerous catalogs and volumes produced for solo exhibitions and major art fairs, some of which were published with the support of the Italian Cultural Institute. He was also among the founding members of “Tostart,” an artistic association born from the meeting of ten Venetian artists and active up to the period of the Pandemic. Eclectic and independent, Contin has built over the years a recognizable language, distant from belonging to a single school or trend. His research traverses geometric abstraction, matter-based and gestural painting, alternating rigor and expressive freedom. Lines, planes, shapes, and intense chromatic relationships become elements of a vocabulary through which he investigates balance, movement, and emotion. Experimentation also extends to sculpture and wood, with works built through the layering of geometric elements, confirming a pursuit that goes beyond the boundaries of painting alone. His work continues to evolve today without predefined formulas: every work is born from the will to preserve freedom, identity, and expressive authenticity."
