The artwork “1,” created by Pierre Alechinsky, belongs to the figurative genre.
The artwork displays a vibrant and chaotic composition. The central area is dominated by a bold interplay of vibrant colors, primarily green, orange, and red. These colors blend and overlap in abstract forms that hint at figures and faces. Surrounding this central explosion of color is a border filled with intricate, smaller sketches. These sketches are monochromatic and depict various humanoid and abstract forms, creating a tapestry of spontaneous and expressive lines. The combination of these two elements showcases Alechinsky’s dynamic style, blending figurative and abstract elements in a bold and energetic manner.
