About Guitare verticale (2ème version)

The artwork titled “Guitare verticale (2ème version)” was created by the renowned artist Le Corbusier in the year 1920. Belonging to the Purism art movement, the artwork is classified as a still life genre.

In “Guitare verticale (2ème version),” one observes a composition characterized by geometric forms and muted colors, reflecting the Purist emphasis on order and clarity. The painting predominantly utilizes vertical and horizontal lines, with simplified shapes that represent objects dissociated into their fundamental geometrical elements. There is a noticeable lack of detailed textures and embellishments, which aligns with the Purism movement’s rejection of the sensory overload typical in Cubism. The overall design displays a harmonious arrangement, focusing on the purity of abstract forms and the interplay of light and shadow to evoke a serene and balanced aesthetic.
