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 and angular shapes 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 gradients, giving the composition a marked visual depth. The overlays of geometric planes reinforce the impression of spatial construction, almost monumental, while retaining total abstraction, without explicit figurative reference.

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

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

Conclusion
Dated March 31, 1985, this geometric abstract composition constitutes a particularly accomplished example of Eugène Eechaut’s graphic work in the 1970s.

Sold with its natural light wood frame and bearing a gallery stamp on the back, it coheres with the rest of his abstract on-paper production, both in formality and visual power.”} } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } } }
