// Abidjan by Bernard Aubertin is a mixed media painting that immerses the viewer in a monochromatic red palette, characteristic of Aubertin's exploration of color and texture. The surface is densely layered with a grid-like pattern of small, repetitive indentations and raised textures, creating a tactile, almost topographical effect. The uniform red tones amplify the sense of depth and intricacy, inviting close inspection to appreciate the subtle variations within the seemingly uniform color field. Aubertin, associated with the Zero movement, frequently used red as a symbol of energy and intensity, seeking to engage viewers through the physical presence and surface dynamics of his works. Abidjan exemplifies his interest in texture and the transformative potential of a single color.

What is ‘light and space’?
The Light and Space Movement refers to loosely affiliated art movements connected to minimalism, geometric abstraction, and op art that originated in Southern California in the 1960s. Greatly influenced by artist John McLaughlin, these artists focused on sensory phenomena such as light, perception, and space as central elements of their work. They also incorporated cutting-edge technologies from the aerospace and engineering industries to develop light-filled and sensuous objects, creating immersive experiences that emphasize the viewer's perception.
