Gaia 1960

"Gaia" is a 1960 abstract painting by Greek artist Alekos Kontopoulos, known for his contributions to Abstract Expressionism. The artwork features a striking interplay of bold colors and geometric shapes, with a dominant dark form dominating the central area and contrasting with a bright orange-red hue at the bottom. The composition evokes a sense of depth and fragmentation, characteristic of Kontopoulos' exploration of form and color. The title, "Gaia," referencing the Greek goddess of the Earth, hints at a connection to nature and the elemental forces that inspire his art.
