About Constellation with 5 White Forms & 2 Black

The artwork titled “Constellation with 5 White Forms & 2 Black” was created by Jean Arp in 1932. It belongs to the Surrealism art movement and falls under the genre of abstract art.

In the artwork, one observes a minimalist composition featuring five white forms and two black forms set against a plain background. The forms are organic and amorphous, taking on shapes that seem fluid and natural rather than geometric. The white forms dominate the arrangement, scattered across the canvas in a seemingly random yet harmonious manner. Contrasting starkly, the two black forms provide a striking visual counterpoint to the white shapes. The overall aesthetic is one of simplicity and purity, characteristic of abstract art, inviting viewers to find their own interpretations within the piece’s surreal landscape.
