Double torus cast in Polyurethane, painted in eight synthetic resin colors. With certificate; signed and numbered by the artist. // Percy John Heawood Conjecture by Bernard Frize is a vibrant and playful sculpture composed of a double torus cast in polyurethane and painted with synthetic resin in eight distinct colors. Created in 2005 and limited to an edition of 45, this piece features intersecting loops that form a continuous, infinity-like shape. The bold use of color—yellow, blue, orange, green, black, and more—highlights the geometric simplicity of the form, yet invites complex interpretations related to mathematics and symmetry, as suggested by the title referencing mathematician Percy John Heawood. With dimensions of 24 cm in width, 8 cm in height, and 4 cm in depth, this piece is both a celebration of form and an exploration of abstract ideas, merging art with mathematical inspiration.

What is Colour Field Painting?
Colour Field Painting is an abstract style characterized by large areas of a single color or simple, solid colors. The term was first used in the 1950s to describe the work of three American Abstract Expressionist painters—Barnett Newman, Mark Rothko, and Clyfford Still. Their work emphasized the emotional power of color and the creation of vast, meditative spaces through expansive color fields.
