Description:
A striking mid-century geometric abstraction by French modernist Serge Guerin, signed and dated 1972. This composition combines a smooth brown acrylic background with precisely executed gouache and ink detailing in blue, green, violet, white and black. The contrast between the matte pigments and the slightly glossy ground enhances the crispness of the linear design, giving the work an almost architectural presence.
Guerin’s signature geometric style—defined by interlocking angular planes, elongated spires and rhythmic intersections—captures the balance between structure and motion. The vertical emphasis and crystalline layering suggest an abstracted cityscape or sculptural form, while the harmonious cool palette stands out vividly against the warm acrylic background. This work exemplifies Guerin’s sophisticated approach to mid-century abstraction, where the discipline of Constructivism meets the expressive precision of post-war French modernism.
An exceptional example of his later period, the piece would appeal to collectors of French geometric abstraction, mid-century design, and minimalist architecture-inspired art. Ideal for framing, it offers a refined yet dynamic visual focal point for both vintage and contemporary interiors. Keywords for collectors and interiors: French mid century abstract, acrylic and gouache on paper, geometric modernist art, Constructivist design, Ecole de Paris abstraction, 1970s French modernism.
