Item Details

Description
Manuel Rufi Gibert presents a vertical abstract composition structured around a central red band marked with white, sign-like forms, set between textured grey fields. The paint surface is matte and restrained, with visible material texture and controlled brushwork. The symbols read as non-literal marks, suggesting a coded or meditative system rather than narrative imagery. The composition relies on balance, repetition, and symmetry, reflecting a disciplined approach to abstraction typical of late twentieth-century Catalan painting. The limited palette reinforces the work’s structural clarity and calm visual rhythm, positioning it firmly within post-war European abstract practices focused on order, reduction, and intellectual rigor.
