AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Alberto GUZMAN (1927–2017) — Abstract composition, 2000 — Ink and wash — Direct provenance from the studio

Original work by Alberto Guzman, executed in ink and wash on 300 g/m² Hahnemühle paper, signed in the upper left, accompanied by a red stamp and the inscription « Paris 2000 ».

In this composition, fragmented circular forms and angular lines stand out against a wash of gray, deep blacks and ochre-like nuances. The ink punctuations, transparencies, and the white areas of the paper create a vibrant surface, where the eye moves between density and lightness.

The drawing possesses a sculptural dimension: the shapes seem to join, separate, and remain suspended. The precision of certain strokes dialogues with the freer diffusion of the wash, giving the whole its rhythm and depth.

The artist:
Alberto Guzman (1927–2017) developed a body of work in which sculptural exploration and drawing respond to each other. The circle, the disk, and their fragmentations occupy an important place in his plastic vocabulary. His inks allow exploring their possibilities through gesture, transparencies, and contrasts.
