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 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.
