NOTE:
Gesso-based monochrome painting on paper, mounted on board. Raised white letters form the word ‘SENZARTE’ (WITHOUT ART) centrally. The work is in an open-sided iron frame similar to the Interno/Esterno collection of artworks (inv. 3760). The composition features a disconnected electric meter in the top right-hand corner of the frame, which gives the artwork its name.
