Discover the artistic evolution of Antonio Calderara in our latest exhibition. From early landscapes, to his mediations on form and his later to abstract works, delve into Calderara's journey as an artist. On display until 22 Dec 2024. #AntonioCalderara #LondonExhibition

[Estorick Collection @Estorick]

Antonio Calderara's exploration of light, space, and perception shines in early works like ‘The Family After the Storm’ (1934) & ‘The Island of San Giulio’ (1935). His use of mist and light foreshadows his later minimalism.
