Emilio Vedova Emerging '82 - 9 - ... A l'Ouest rien de nouveau, 1982

First exhibited at the Venice Biennale in 1982, Emilio Vedova’s Emerging ’82 – 9 – ... A l’Ouest rien de nouveau (1982) is dominated by the graphic lines and expressive brushwork characteristic of his paintings from this decade, widely recognised as the pinnacle of his career. In 1980, the artist travelled to Mexico, where the colours and immense landscapes left a lasting impression: ‘All at once the kaleidoscope of emotions, of wide American spaces, of scents and colours was right back,’ he wrote in 1982. ‘The clashes were immediately very harsh. A new geography of immense “horizontal” spaces.’ Upon his return, Vedova introduced an explosion of colour into his palette, refining the abstract painterly style that defined his practice.

埃米利奥·维多瓦（Emilio Vedova）的《新兴’82-9-...西线无战事》（Emerging ’82 – 9 – ... A l’Ouest rien de nouveau）（1982年）首次在威尼斯双年展中展出，画作主 要以特有的图像线和富有表现力的笔触组成，被认为是他创作生涯的巅峰之作。 1980年，艺术家赴墨西哥旅游，当地的色彩和震撼的风景为他留下了深刻的印象： “ 昔日美国广阔的空间、气味和颜色形成的情感万花筒立时重现眼前。” 他于1982年写 道， “当中的不协调立时变得相当强烈。一个庞大 “水平” 空间的新地理环境。” 回国后，维多瓦在他的调色板中引入了爆炸性的色彩，完善了奠定他艺术实践的抽象 绘画风格。
