AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Rocks on the Shore (2009)
Assembled and painted wood. 85 × 69 × 9 cm.
The work comes with a certificate of originality signed by the artist.
Created in 2009, Rocks on the Shore belongs to a stage in Juan Fuster’s career marked by the integration of painting, assemblage, and spatial construction. The piece develops an abstract geometric language in which wood takes on a central role.
Slats and fragments of wood are assembled to form a structure of vertical, horizontal, and diagonal planes, combining natural surfaces with others painted in vivid color contrasts. This arrangement creates a balance between order and dynamism, while the actual relief of the materials introduces depth and turns the painting into a three-dimensional object.
The title evokes the coastal landscape. The “rocks” are not depicted figuratively but suggested through the accumulation, overlapping, and solidity of the various elements. The work thus establishes a dialogue between nature and construction, between matter and geometry, occupying that intermediate territory between painting, relief, and sculpture that characterizes a significant part of Fuster’s body of work.
