AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Vladimir Yakoubovitch — Horizontal Composition with Coiled Forms
Graphite on paper, 1990.
Signed and dated 1990 at the lower right, in Cyrillic characters. Additional inscription in Cyrillic characters.
Country of origin: Russia.
Dimensions: height 32.5 cm × width 46 cm (landscape format).
Period: 1990s.
Arranged horizontally, the composition sets large coiled forms in dialogue with angular elements. On the right, a sweeping circular movement balances the more open fragments on the left. The visible grain of the gray areas and the untouched sections of the paper create a sequence of solid forms and voids.
The texture of the gray areas contrasts with the light sections left untouched. Variations in density nuance the circular forms and reinforce their interlocking arrangement. Graphite makes it possible to work with these tonal variations while retaining the presence of the paper’s grain.
Condition: good. Small marks and irregularities in the paper are visible in the photograph.
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 areas left untouched.
