Sans titre, 1966
1966
A dynamic composition of bold, organic forms rendered in rich gouache, where deep blacks and muted earth tones anchor gestural, abstract shapes that seem to float and collide across the paper's surface. Van Velde's characteristic ambiguity pervades the work, as undefined figures emerge and dissolve within layers of expressive brushwork, resisting any fixed interpretation. The piece exemplifies his deeply personal approach to abstraction, conveying a brooding psychological tension through the raw materiality of the medium.
