Paolo Scheggi

(Italian, 1940–1971)

Paolo Scheggi was an Italian artist and member of the avant-garde ZERO group. Known for his inventive monochromatic canvases, Scheggi’s abstractions create shallow space and light by superimposing surfaces and overlapping elliptical holes in a series called Intersuperfici and Strutture Modulari. Born in 1940 in Florence, Scheggi went on to study in London and later moved to Milan. The formal and conceptual aspects of his work allied him with the ZERO movement with artists like Lucio Fontana, whose work puncturing the picture plane and interest in exploring paintings as objects was similar to Scheggi’s. Despite a short life, his work was widely exhibited, notably including the, 33rd Venice Biennale in 1966. In 1968, he began his investigation of the theater, expanding his work beyond the traditional gallery space into the city. The last works he produced before his death, focused on the relationship between religious, anthropological, and symbolic forms. Scheggi died in 1971 in Rome, Italy at the age of 31.
