Eduarda Emilia Maino, known by the pseudonym Dadamaino, is an iconic figure in Italian art. Her artistic journey began in 1951, with her discovery of the work of Lucio Fontana, which catalyzed her penchant for innovation. In Milan, a vibrant cultural hub, she immersed herself in the international fervor to transform conventions of forms and materials. Her series of "Volumi," characterized by monochromatic canvases pierced in the 1950s, initiated an introspection on the role of the canvas as an exploratory field. She also used rhodoïd to bring to life "Volumi a moduli sfasati" with dynamic optical effects. In 1964, at the "Nouvelle Tendance" exhibition in Paris, she stood out with her works that seemed to transform and move thanks to the meticulous use of aluminum. Continuing her exploration of materials, Dadamaino worked with Plexiglas and fluorescent plastics, enriching her luminokinetic creations that play with light and movement.
