Art of the week: Bruno Paoli

Bruno Paoli, Untitled, ​Oil on board, 1959

This oil on board by Italian artist Bruno Paoli pay homage to Matisee and the strong design quality of the Fauvism, with the horizontal and vertical forms, which draw the viewer into the picture and through the window to the outside world. ​The centre of attention is not the two figures depicted, but rather the bowl of fish on the floor echoing the converging points of the golden section.
