Bruno Leti

This mini book features the artist’s paintings from the 1960s until now. Alan Loney’s essay examines Leti’s multi-faceted studio practice wherein he produces paintings, prints, artists books, drawings and photographs as integral parts of a working life devoted to the arts. However, the author’s major theme is the development of Leti’s paintings from the energetically gestural works of his early career to the multi-panelled minimalism of recent years. Many of the paintings in this book have been neither exhibited nor reproduced. Most are landscape-based, but presented as richly coloured lyrical abstractions which project a poetic appeal to the senses through colour, texture and gesture.
