Germinating 1955

"Germinating" (1955) by Gottfried Honegger is a striking abstract work on paper. This piece exemplifies Honegger's signature geometric style, characterized by stark lines and bold colors. The central geometric form, reminiscent of a seed or bud, is composed of interlocking shapes, showcasing the artist's interest in exploring the interplay of light and shadow within a geometric framework. The muted colors and the simplified horizon line, contrasting with the bold geometric forms, lend a sense of depth and mystery to the artwork.
