The artwork is entitled “Back Wheel,” created by Pierre Alechinsky in 1971. This piece belongs to the Surrealism art movement and falls under the genre of figurative art. Alechinsky’s “Back Wheel” is characterized by its fluid lines and abstract forms, set against a background of handwritten text.
The artwork features a combination of bold, black lines and organic shapes, intertwining in a manner that evokes a sense of movement and chaos. The abstract and surreal design is superimposed on a background filled with cursive script, adding a layer of texture and complexity to the piece. The juxtaposition of the dynamic forms with the static text creates a compelling visual contrast, emblematic of Surrealist influences. The piece is rendered in a monochromatic palette with subtle touches of color, and its intricate design invites viewers to explore its depths and nuances.
