The friendship of a young Japanese artist, Sato, with Seuphor, who was already over 70, led him to discover the constructivism that he would never abandon.<br\/>In 1979, Satoru Sato developed a new line of thought around the notion of verticalism. His use of raw materials, such as bare canvas or wood (and, for a brief period in the early 1980s, metal), treated with a reduced palette, and his design of intermediate constructions, halfway between painting and relief, led him to large-format sculpture and to a reflection on the integration of art.Construction and Conception is a representative work of the work Sato produced from 1976 onwards: relief paintings with the canvas surrounded by a rectangular, vertical wooden structure, in which he incorporated geometric pieces of the same material arranged symmetrically.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2313,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_kad_post_classname":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1320","col-leccio","type-col-leccio","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Sato Satoru - Fundaci\u00f3 St\u00e4mpfli<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.fundacio-stampfli.org\/en\/collections\/sato-satoru\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Sato Satoru - Fundaci\u00f3 St\u00e4mpfli\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The work Construction and Conception1992200 x 145 cmAcrylic on canvas and wood &#8220;Construction and Conception&#8221; is a representative work of the work Sato produced from 1976 onwards: relief paintings with the canvas surrounded by a rectangular, vertical wooden structure, in which he incorporated geometric pieces of the same material arranged symmetrically.
