Product description
This composition exemplifies the artist’s innovative use of ink and collage. The sharp, abstract forms rendered in meticulous ink lines create a sense of towering structures or sails that rise vertically, giving the piece an architectural feel. A contrasting collage element—a swimmer captured mid-motion underwater—adds a surprising dimension, juxtaposing organic human movement with the otherwise structured, abstract forms. The swimmer’s fluid pose and vibrant colors infuse the piece with a dynamic energy, enhancing the work’s layered textures and depth. This interplay between ink precision and collage spontaneity showcases the artist’s adeptness at merging mediums to evoke both stability and fluidity within a minimalist aesthetic.
Eugène Eechaut 1928-2019
Since the 1960s, he has exhibited alongside Magritte at the Pfeiffer Gallery in Brussels. And several photos show them together. He exhibited at the Tamara Pfeiffer Gallery in 1969 with, for example: Ambrogiani, Bricault, Jean Cocteau, G de Pauw, De Muylder, Max Ernst, Hilaire, Jamotte, Felicien Robs, etc... as evidenced by the invitation card included in the photos.
In 1958 E. Eechaut received his first distinctions as a painter at the "European Center for Art and Aesthetics." From 1968, he participated and organized with "the Tamara Pfeiffer Gallery" and during the 1960s and 1970s. His style, which will initially be called "FANTASTIC" art with elegance and finesse in his interpretations. His colors, which instantly seduce us, reveal the subject, a subject that ultimately captivates us. Throughout his career, E. Eechaut rubbed shoulders with and exhibited in the greatest galleries and art exhibitions in Europe. In catalogs and invitations, we find artists such as Jean Cocteau, René Magritte, Dunoyer de Segonzac, Léon Navez, Félicien Rops, Paul Klee, and many others. E. Eechaut, a wealthy man for whom the sale of his works was impossible, even within his own family. He jealously guarded his production, hence the lack of information and the lack of sales results for his work.
His recently rediscovered studio opens the doors to his numerous works in their entirety. The archives of his career were found at the same time as his work, giving it another dimension.
