Steel sculpture on marble foot. Hand signed and numbered at the back by the artist. // Ryph by Geneviève Claisse is a mixed-media sculpture crafted in 1966, featuring striking black steel geometric forms set against a white background and mounted on a marble base. The artwork, composed of sharp-edged triangles and diagonal rods, embodies Claisse's commitment to geometric abstraction, emphasizing form and spatial tension. The interplay of sharp black shapes against the stark white surface creates a dynamic visual rhythm, evoking movement and balance within the minimalist structure. Claisse's attention to proportion and alignment reflects her background in concrete art, where precision and clarity dominate, inviting viewers to explore the nuances of geometric relationships in space. The artist's hand-signed and numbered edition highlights the work's collectible value.

What is Hard Edge Art?
Hard Edge art is a style of abstract painting that became popular in the 1960s. It features areas of color separated by crisp, sharp edges that are painted with geometric precision. The term hard-edge painting was coined by art critic Jules Langsner to describe this approach, which contrasts with the softer, more fluid forms of other abstract styles.
