AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller


A striking original color serigraph by Swiss artist Gottfried Honegger. This piece is part of a limited edition portfolio, numbered 21/75, and hand-signed by the artist in pencil at the lower right corner.
vibrant geometric compositions, clean lines, and masterful precision typical of Honegger’s Constructivist work.

About Gottfried Honegger & Constructivism
Gottfried Honegger (1917–2016) was a central figure in 20th-century Constructivism and geometric abstraction. His art is often characterized by harmonious balance, mathematical structure, and a fascination with color and form. His contributions align with the broader Constructivist and Concrete Art movements that merged geometry and artistic abstraction.

Honegger is connected to a long tradition of artists working in these styles, alongside figures such as:
Kazimir Malevich, El Lissitzky, Theo van Doesburg, Piet Mondrian, Naum Gabo, Antoine Pevsner, Alexander Rodchenko, László Moholy-Nagy, Jean Gorin, Ilya Chashnik, Vasily Kandinsky, and Ivan Puni.

Additionally, Honegger shared artistic kinship with other proponents of Concrete Art like Max Bill, Richard Paul Lohse, Josef Albers, Sophie Taeuber-Arp, Jean Arp, Camille Graeser, Georges Vantongerloo, Cesar Domela, and Otto Freundlich. These artists, in turn, were influenced by the principles of the De Stijl movement and the Bauhaus school.

Honegger collaborated with and was inspired by innovators across disciplines, such as designers and architects like Le Corbusier, Walter Gropius, and Mies van der Rohe, who integrated Constructivist aesthetics into architecture and industrial design.

Constructivism sought to create a universal visual language based on geometry and abstraction, bridging art, technology, and modern life.

CONDITION REPORT: The artwork has vibrant, richly saturated colors and good paper quality.
The print features noticeable horizontal and vertical fold lines from historical portfolio storage;
however, these creases do not compromise the artwork's integrity. The overall visual impression remains strong, and these folds can be significantly minimized or flattened with professional archival framing and matting
