Note:
An artist associated with the Supports/Surfaces movement, André-Pierre Arnal began exploring the deconstruction of the painting and experimentation with materials in the late 1960s. This composition is characteristic of his work on imprints, layering, and the repetition of geometric shapes. The variations in red and orange, combined with areas where the support is visible, highlight the materiality of the canvas and the creative process itself.
