Ode Bertrand (1930) - Plan

Ode Bertrand (born in 1939) – “Plan” – Original acrylic on paper, signed

Original work by the eminent French artist Ode Bertrand, a key figure in contemporary geometric abstraction in France and Europe. This exceptional composition bears witness to the rigor, precision, and formal demand that characterize her entire artistic career.

Executed in acrylic on high-quality paper, this work stands out for its finesse of execution, the balance of its composition, and its strong visual presence. rarer in the artist’s production, the use of color gives this piece a character particularly sought after by collectors.

A student and then assistant to the great abstract painter Aurélie Nemours, Ode Bertrand inherited from her teaching a uncompromising plastic discipline and a search for the essential. For over forty years, she has developed a personal language based on purity, space construction, and the tension between line and surface.

Her work rests on a remarkably coherent methodology: a grid of straight lines structures space while the colored forms and graphic interventions establish a subtle dialogue between balance, rhythm, and visual architecture.
