Description of the work
This work is characterized by a strongly structured geometric abstract composition, organized around a central vertical axis evoking a stylized architecture. The straight-edged, angular forms rise progressively, creating a sense of ascent and stability, while side curves balance the rigor of the whole with a more fluid movement.
The ink work is distinguished by a controlled alternation of solid areas, striped zones, and subtle gradations, giving the composition marked visual depth. The overlays of geometric planes reinforce the impression of spatial construction, almost monumental, while retaining total abstraction, with no explicit figurative reference.

The lower, more diffuse and nuanced part contrasts with the sharpness of the central and upper forms. This treatment suggests a transition between an unstable space and a strongly anchored structure, enhancing the visual tension and the internal dynamics of the work.

Notice about the artist
Eugène Eechaut (1928–2019) was a Belgian painter and draftsman whose work sits between poetic abstraction, stylized figuration, and rigorous graphic explorations. In the 1970s, he developed a visual language based on the geometrization of forms, the exploration of verticality, and an expressive use of ink on paper.
This period corresponds to a phase of artistic maturity, during which his compositions gain structural density and plastic force.

Conclusion
Dated May 6, 1983, this geometric abstract composition is a particularly accomplished example of Eugène Eechaut’s graphical work in the 1970s.

Sold with its natural light wood frame and bearing a gallery stamp on the back, it sits coherently within the broader body of his abstract paper works, both in its formal rigor and its visual power.”} } }
