Constellation with 5 White Forms & 2 Black 1932

"Constellation with 5 White Forms & 2 Black" (1932) by Jean Arp is a prime example of his abstract, biomorphic style. The piece features irregularly shaped white forms, reminiscent of organic elements, scattered across a white background. Two black forms add contrast and suggest constellations, reflecting Arp's interest in chance and the natural world. His approach to art, known as "chance-driven composition," emphasizes the unpredictable, drawing viewers into a contemplation of the abstract and the universe.
