X - 1 1986

Yves Gaucher's "X-1" is a striking example of minimalist art, created in 1986. The artwork features two simple geometric shapes, a dark brown rectangle and a maroon parallelogram, arranged against a stark white background. The use of solid, flat colors and the sharp angles of the shapes emphasizes the simplicity and elegance of the composition. The piece evokes a sense of balance and harmony, inviting viewers to contemplate the interplay between form and color.
