The artwork titled “Night-watch (Trois quart de veille)” is a figurative piece created by the artist Pierre Alechinsky in the year 1977. This artwork belongs to the Neo-Expressionism movement.
The artwork features a series of twelve distinct rectangular panels arranged in a grid pattern. Each panel contains abstract, expressive forms and motifs predominantly rendered in shades of green, interspersed with accents of blue and a striking red dot in select panels. The compositions within each rectangle evoke a sense of dynamic motion and organic patterning, typical of Alechinsky’s style. The deliberate use of vibrant color and gestural line work aligns with the expressiveness characteristic of the Neo-Expressionism movement. The overall visual effect of the artwork is one of vivid exploration and intense emotional energy.
