"Mechano-Factura" (1924) by Henryk Berlewi is a prime example of the artist's signature "Mechano-Faktura" style, characterized by geometric shapes and precise lines. This abstract composition, rendered in a limited palette of black, red, gray, and white, is visually striking for its rigorous grid structure and playful manipulation of geometric patterns. The work's dynamic visual interplay of geometric shapes and contrasting colors evokes a sense of structure and order, showcasing Berlewi's interest in exploring the potential of geometric abstraction.
