Untitled (Suite 'Blancs') 1973

"Untitled (Suite 'Blancs')" is a 1973 abstract artwork by Simon Hantai, a Hungarian-born artist known for his unique approach to painting. This work embodies Hantai's signature " pliage" technique, where he folds and unfolds canvas before applying paint, resulting in a layered and textured surface. The vibrant colors, primarily blues, oranges, and greens, are scattered across the canvas, creating a sense of energy and movement. The piece's seemingly random pattern is a testament to Hantai's belief in the beauty of chance and the power of the artistic process.
