Turi Simeti – Born in 1929 in Alcamo, near Trapani, in Sicily, Turi Simeti is one of the leading figures of Italian art of the 1960s. He moved to Rome in 1958 where met Italian painter and sculptor Alberto Burri. Simeti began his art career in the early 1960s, initially pursuing the zeroing of art in a similar way to other contemporary experiences of the Zero group.
In those years Simeti worked with the technique of collage. He cut elements out of cardboard, canvas, or wood and applied them to the canvas flat, seeking the annulment of the art. From the start, he used the form that has become the figure of his art: the oval.
