About
Why this artist matters now
Niele Toroni is a Swiss-Italian painter whose practice since 1967 has consisted of the repeated application of paint with a no. 50 brush at regular 30-centimetre intervals across surfaces. This rigorous, self-imposed constraint strips painting to its most elementary act, positioning his work alongside the Supports/Surfaces and BMPT movements in post-1960s French art.
