    Comments

    Known primarily for his colourful kinetic forms, the Hungarian-born artist created works in the mid-1950s in the "Period Noir-Blanc" in which he playfully explored the contrast between the colours white and black. Here he took up his earlier graphic studies and continued his works with linear nets or wave-like deformations

    Erläuterungen

    Der vor allem für seine farbigen kinetischen Formen bekannte Künstler ungarischer Abstammung schuf Mitte der fünfziger Jahre in der Werkperiode "Periode Noir-Blanc" Arbeiten, bei denen er spielerisch den Kontrast der Farben Weiss und Schwarz erforschte. Hierbei greift er seine früheren graphischen Studien auf und knüpft an seine Arbeiten mit linearen Netzen oder wellenförmigen Verformungen an
