Geometric Abstraction In Red – Manuel Rufi Gibert

Description
Painted in 1991 by Manuel Rufi Gibert, this commanding abstract work exemplifies the artist’s signature exploration of geometry, rhythm, and surface texture. Against a deeply worked red background, a sequence of bold black symbols unfolds with measured precision, suggesting both coded language and architectural order. The composition’s austerity is offset by the warmth of the chromatic field, which reveals subtle tonal shifts and traces of the artist’s hand beneath the pigment. Rufi Gibert’s refined balance between form and spontaneity places this piece firmly within the lineage of post-war Catalan abstraction, where material presence and visual restraint define meaning. The interplay of flatness and depth, of symbol and silence, makes this painting an elegant statement of visual intelligence and tactile beauty suited to refined modern spaces.
