Mario Schifano, an artist with a rebellious and edgy spirit, is now considered one of the most prolific painters of the post-war period. He immediately attracted critical attention by creating monochrome paintings that offer the idea of a photographic screen that would later accommodate numbers, letters, road signs, and the logos of Esso and Coca Cola. He lived in New York where he frequented Frank O'Hara, Jasper Johns, and Andy Warhol.
