Title Kumi Sugai (1919–1996) – Geometric Abstraction (1967) – Hand-Signed & Dated – Original Print Description This is an original print from 1967 by the internationally acclaimed Japanese-born, Paris-based abstract artist Kumi Sugai (1919–1996). Sugai was a key figure of the post-war École de Paris and avant-garde abstraction. He gained international recognition for developing a distinctive visual language that combined elements of Japanese aesthetics with Western modernism, geometric abstraction, and graphic dynamism. His works are represented in major museum collections worldwide, including The Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York, the Centre Pompidou in Paris, and Tate in London. Created in 1967, during an important period in Sugai’s artistic development, this work showcases his distinctive geometric style, featuring rich green curved forms set against vivid red and textured grey elements. The composition demonstrates his characteristic fascination with bold geometric shapes, movement, and graphic precision. The work is hand-signed and dated “SUGAI 67” in pencil in the lower center margin, providing a clear indication of the artist’s authorship and year of creation. Visual Appeal: A striking modernist composition featuring vivid color contrasts, bold geometric curves, and fine graphic texture.
