Product description
Ink on paper.
Hand signed, 1970
50 x 30 cm
This intriguing artwork is a masterful display of surrealistic elements combined with exceptional technical control over ink. The composition merges organic forms with abstract patterns, blurring the line between the familiar and the otherworldly. The delicate detailing of the flora contrasts with the abstract forms, creating a dynamic tension between nature and fantasy. The skilled use of ink allows for intricate texturing and shading, giving the piece a refined yet dreamlike quality. This minimalist yet profound artwork invites viewers to interpret the surreal forms as part of a larger narrative.
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.
