Italian term

il ciclo degli intervalli

Italian to English Art/Literary Art, Arts & Crafts, Painting painting
Inizia a realizzare opere a carattere installativo come Storie di A, B, C, D, - Senza dire…( a J.B.). Nell’arco dell’anno prende avvio il ciclo degli Intervalli.

I think Intervalli is one of his works.
So, maybe, during the year he begins working on Intervalli????

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.

How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:

An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)

A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).

Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.

When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.

* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

the "intervals" series

In my experience artists often use the term "series" for a set of connected or cohesive pieces covering the same subject or idea. This blog page explains:

"An art SERIES is a unified, cohesive body of work that employs the same technique, subject, or palette throughout multiple works. Creating your own SERIES can be an excellent way to improve your skills and explore a particular theme or style in greater detail."

Or maybe this should be "intervalli series of works...."
Example sentence:

"Working in a SERIES has many advantages. The first one is style consistency. Big SERIES paintings allow the artist to paint on several pieces at the same time. In this case, the paintings will look consistent in style even if they will show variations."

period OR cycle

Period or cycle are common terms in art history and critique to refer to the time an artist worked at the production of a particular type or works with some common element or theme, (e.g. Picasso's Blue Period) and the works thus created. Cycle gives even more a connotation of unity, as for instance in Wagner's Ring Cycle.

In my suggestion, (called, titled) is in brackets:

- cycle "Intervalli"
- cycle called "Intervalli"
- cycle titled "Intervalli"
