Bram Van Velde MP 167 lithograph abstract form in muted blue red and ochre with gestural brushstrokes

Signed in brush and annotated EA lower left. From the edition of 100 + EA. Published by Jacques Putman. Printed by Pierre Badey. Reference: Mason Putman 167. Bram Van Velde’s MP 167 (1975) is a lithograph on paper that exemplifies his distinctive approach to abstraction, where form emerges through tension rather than clear delineation. Broad, gestural brushstrokes in muted blues, reds, and ochres create an ambiguous, almost figure-like structure that resists stable interpretation. The layered application of color and the visible traces of the artist’s hand suggest both construction and erosion, a hallmark of Van Velde’s late work. Published by Jacques Putman and printed by Pierre Badey, the print reflects the artist’s exploration of inner states rather than external reality, aligning with post-war European abstraction and its emphasis on existential expression.

What is geometric abstract art?

Geometric abstraction is a form of abstract art that uses geometric shapes arranged in a non-illusionistic space (though not always) and combined into non-representational (non-objective) compositions. Based on years of artistic research, some artists have proposed that geometric abstraction offers a solution to modern challenges by rejecting traditional illusionistic practices in favor of clarity and simplicity.
