ALBERT BITRAN'S ABSTRACT PERIOD OF THE 1950s...
This 1957 work by Albert Bitran belongs to the formative period of his move from geometric abstraction toward a more expressive and intuitive visual language. Rooted in the ethos of the École de Paris and informed by the legacy of constructivism and cubism, Bitran's early abstractions reveal a deep concern with structure, balance, and inner rhythm. While still engaging with geometric forms, this piece foreshadows the gestural freedom that would define his later lyrical abstraction. Shapes interlock, overlap, and break apart in a dynamic interplay of form and space, echoing both architectural discipline and a growing desire for emotional immediacy. Executed just a few years after his arrival in Paris, this painting reflects Bitran’s emerging artistic voice, intellectually rigorous yet increasingly personal, and foundational to the unique visual language he would develop in the decades to follow.
