Postcard of the Osvaldo Mariscotti artwork 2050 II from 2013.

The Simplified period (2010-15) is characterized by the interaction between background and center figures. Complementary colors now surround each figure producing halos that extend to the limits of each section. The artist creates a ripple effect which conveys a sense of expansion. The work is no longer bound to the canvas, it involves its surroundings. Furthermore, this idea takes us to perhaps the main particularity of this work, perception. These works were mostly produced using fluorescent acrylics which, when exposed to certain types of light, react creating unexpected and usually quite unconventional visual effects.

The later part of the period is characterized by much simplified constructions where the width and separation between elements conveys the meaning of the work.

Postcard of the Osvaldo Mariscotti artwork Dark Orange from 2008.

As we progress in time we reach the Late stage of the Color Abstraction Period (2004-09). We immediately notice the change in the role of the background. Now, the background sets the mood of the work, a mood which is set and unchanging. The grid in this case is defined as the absence of color, natural breaks present between transitions of the black figures. Given the increased role of the background, we observe less color 'complements' to the black shapes, with the introduction of light shadows which define the concept of motion.

Postcard of the Osvaldo Mariscotti artwork Tormenta en el valle from 1984.

Mariscotti's Red Period (1980s) consists of vibrant paintings where motion is the main theme rendered as strong diagonals of color which produce subdivisions on the canvas that at the same time highlight the space in each section. The color red is widely used in the canvases of this period, only combined with certain other colors such as yellow, green and blue.

Postcard of the Osvaldo Mariscotti artwork Untitled 21A from 2000.

The Pseudo-figurative period (1996-2000) is characterized by vibrant paintings that resemble works from the Red Period; however, incorporating ideas from the later Geometric Period. The canvas is completely covered by color, with darker shapes, usually in black or blue, spread uniformly across the work. We observe the first efforts at dividing the canvas in clearly demarcated sections, something that will become a personal symbol for the artist in later periods. The artist introduces for the first time the concept of "change" and "progression", establishing milestones for later work.
