Artwork location: Switzerland

This elegant signed screen print is a refined example of geometric abstraction by Ilya Bolotowsky, one of the leading figures of American post-war abstraction. The composition is structured around a large vertical oval, divided into carefully balanced fields of blue tones intersected by crisp white lines and subtle red accents. The precise geometry and harmonious color relationships create a calm yet dynamic visual rhythm, reflecting Bolotowsky's lifelong exploration of balance, proportion, and visual clarity.

The work is signed in pencil by Ilya Bolotowsky at the lower center. It is numbered in pencil at the lower left, and says Basel in pencil at the lower center.

Ilya Bolotowsky (1907–1981) was born in St. Petersburg, Russia, and emigrated to the United States in 1923. He became a key member of the American Abstract Artists group and was deeply influenced by De Stijl and the theories of Piet Mondrian. Bolotowsky played a crucial role in establishing geometric abstraction in the United States, translating European modernist ideas into a distinctly American visual language. His works are held in major museum collections, including the Museum of Modern Art, the Guggenheim Museum, and the Whitney Museum of American Art.

Presentation

Ilya Bolotowsky is a painter who was born in 1907 and died in 1981. Born in Russia, his family moved to Baku and Istanbul, before settling in New York in 1923. It was there that he studied at the National Academy of Design. He was part of the group of artists "The Ten", alongside Louis Schanker, Adolph Gottlieb, Mark Rothko and Joseph Solman. With them, he rebelled against the strict rules of the academy and participated in independent exhibitions.

His pieces are geometrically abstract. The objective of his artistic research is a philosophical order through visual expression. He was inspired by Piet Mondrian, from whom he adopted his horizontal and vertical lines and his restricted palette of colors. He also painted murals in Brooklyn.

His first solo exhibition in a museum took place at the prestigious Guggenheim Museum of New York in 1974. Today, his pieces are part of numerous museum collections all around the world, in France, India, Sweden, and London just to name a few.
