Item Details

Description
This striking 1976 composition by Jaume Genovart (1930–1993) exemplifies the artist’s mature exploration of geometric abstraction and pictorial language. Executed in bold, layered tones of cadmium yellow, crimson, turquoise, and violet, the work creates a sense of controlled dynamism, where architectural forms and calligraphic gestures coexist in rhythmic tension. The painting fuses precise linear construction with expressive brushwork, evoking both the structural clarity of Constructivism and the poetic spontaneity of Abstract Expressionism. Genovart’s use of mathematical balance and chromatic contrast reflects his fascination with “pintura-pintura” — painting about painting — a key concept of the Trama Group, to which he belonged. The large, angular forms suggest a synthesis between industrial modernity and metaphysical space, inviting contemplation of abstraction as a universal visual language. This piece would enhance any contemporary setting seeking a sophisticated dialogue between color, structure, and form.


Artist
Jaume Genovart (1930–1993) was a leading figure in postwar Catalan abstraction and a founding member of the Trama Group.


Artist Details
Born in Barcelona, Genovart became one of the central exponents of the movement known as pintura-pintura or New Abstraction in Spain during the 1970s. His work explores the autonomy of painting as a medium, focusing on geometry, chromatic dialogue, and gestural expression. Closely linked to Catalonia’s avant-garde scene, he exhibited widely in Spain and Europe, contributing to the redefinition of abstraction after Informalism.
