Céline's Notebook 1990

"Céline's Notebook" (1990) by Alvaro Lapa is a minimalist abstract painting. The artwork is characterized by its striking use of color and form. Lapa, a Portuguese artist known for his minimalist style, employed a simple black canvas punctuated by two vertical white lines and a red line that arcs across the canvas. The red line, in contrast to the crisp, vertical lines, suggests a fluid and dynamic movement. The artwork evokes a sense of stark simplicity and subtle emotion.
