11.5.50 1950

"11.5.50" is a minimalist work by German artist Julius Bissier, created in 1950, shortly after World War II. The artwork features a stylized tree-like form rendered in black on a light background, along with a red, rectangular shape that resembles a house, incorporating a small yellow circle, hinting at a window. Bissier's abstract style, influenced by Surrealism and Art Informel, often explored themes of nature, architecture, and the human condition. The artist's use of bold shapes and minimal color creates a sense of quietude and contemplation.
