Gouache on paper. 'Grisaille à trous bleus.' Signed and dated 1976. Maurice Wyckaert’s Sans titre (1976) is a gouache on paper that explores abstraction through layered, organic forms in a restrained palette of blues, greys, and black. The subtitle “Grisaille à trous bleus” reflects the interplay between muted tonal fields and vivid blue openings that punctuate the composition. Broad, gestural brushstrokes create textured surfaces resembling natural elements—rock, foliage, or flowing water—while sharp contrasts and irregular contours suggest movement and depth. Signed and dated by the artist, the work exemplifies Wyckaert’s post-Cobra interest in expressive landscapes distilled into semi-abstract visual rhythms.

What is abstract expressionism?
Abstract Expressionism is an art movement that emerged in the United States during the 1940s and 1950s. Characterized by large, abstract canvases, the movement emphasized spontaneous, expressive brushwork and the use of color and form to convey emotion rather than represent reality. Artists like Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko, and Willem de Kooning are key figures in this movement. Abstract Expressionism marked a shift in the art world, making New York City a center of the international art scene.
