AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Vladimir Yakoubovitch — Composition with Interlocking Curves
Graphite on paper, 1991
Signed and dated 1991 in Cyrillic characters at the lower left.
Country of origin: Russia.
Dimensions: height 41 cm × width 32 cm (portrait format).
Period: 1991
Broad curves interlock around a central reserved area, interacting with points and oblique strokes. The composition combines the breadth of rounded masses with the tension of sharper lines. Variations in gray and areas left light give depth to this abstract construction.
The rendering combines grainy passages with more assertive curved contours. The modulation of values suggests volumes without resorting to figurative representation. Breaks in the line allow the composition to breathe. Graphite lends itself to these variations in pressure and density, articulating the masses and their contours.
Condition: good. Irregular lower edge and small marks visible on the support.
Vladimir Yakoubovitch is a 20th-century artist. A 2007 auction catalogue places him in Montparnasse after the war and mentions his participation in the Salon des Réalités Nouvelles. His graphic work explores the relationships between curved forms, angular structures, and spaces left in reserve.
Artwork sold unframed.
