Composition 1974

"Composition" is a 1974 abstract artwork by Ukrainian artist Hryhorii Havrylenko. This minimalist piece, likely a pastel on paper, utilizes a limited palette of blue, red, and orange, reflecting the artist's interest in geometric forms and pure color. The large, circular orange form, reminiscent of the sun, dominates the composition, creating a focal point against the pale blue background. The horizontal red band at the bottom of the piece provides contrast and anchors the artwork. Havrylenko's work is known for its simplicity and expressive use of color, which are evident in this striking, yet serene, work.
