"Since the 1960s, Niele Toroni has committed himself to investigating how his particular concept of painting--imprints of a paint-laden #50 brush made repeatedly at perpendicular 30 centimeter intervals--subtly evidences human touch in the same moment that it obliterates the brushstroke as emotive or psychological record. This physical and conceptual dichotomy creates many thoughtful contradictions within his work: the material existence of applied paint with its lack of status as a material object; the systematic sameness of his application with the uniqueness of each imprint; and the manner in which the architectural details and boundaries of a given space serve to both limit and support his work."
