Dichotomic Organization 1959

"Dichotomic Organization" is a 1959 abstract painting by Lorser Feitelson. It is a prime example of his geometric style that emerged in the 1950s, characterized by stark contrasts of color and shape. The artwork is composed of simplified shapes, primarily triangles, in a bold palette of black, orange, and blue. The composition is visually balanced yet dynamic, with the sharp angles and geometric forms creating a sense of movement and tension. Feitelson's geometric abstractions were greatly influenced by the principles of Constructivism and Suprematism, emphasizing the formal qualities of art over representational imagery.
