Meun 1968

"Meun" (1968) is an abstract painting by Hungarian artist Simon Hantai, known for his innovative and spontaneous approach to art. The piece features bold, abstract shapes in a deep blue hue against a stark white background. Hantai's "Meun" exemplifies his signature technique of "pliage," where he folded the canvas before painting, resulting in unique and unpredictable patterns. This method highlights the chance element and the interplay of form and color, creating a dynamic and energetic composition.
