Title Kumi Sugai - Geometric Abstract with Red Circles - Signed & Dated Screenprint - 1969 ⸻ Description An authentic original screenprint created in 1969 by the internationally acclaimed Japanese avant-garde artist Kumi Sugai (1919–1996). A leading member of the post-war École de Paris, Sugai developed a distinctive visual language inspired by road signs, speed, and the streamlined aesthetics of modern industrial design. By the late 1960s, his work had evolved into bold geometric abstractions defined by precise forms, vibrant colors, and immaculate compositions. This striking print is a superb example from that celebrated period. Dominated by vivid red circles framed by dynamic black-and-white diagonal bands, the composition perfectly reflects Sugai’s signature balance between movement, rhythm, and geometric precision. The print is hand-signed “SUGAI” and dated “69.” in pencil in the lower right. Offered unframed as a sheet, it represents an excellent opportunity to acquire an original work from one of Japan’s most important post-war abstract artists.
