Title: Cubist French Abstract Composition With Geometric Shapes And Blue Sphere
Guy Nicod (French 1923 - 2021)
Gouache on artist paper, unframed
Size: 18.75 x 26.25 inches (height x width)
Provenance: Artists estate, France
Condition: good overall with some handling marks and light edge wear to sheet
Description:
This complex cubist gouache by French modernist Guy Nicod presents a striking architectural composition alive with bold colour and geometric invention. The scene is filled with arches, stairways, and abstracted forms that evoke the atmosphere of a futuristic cityscape or theatrical stage. A vibrant blue spherical form dominates the lower right, intersected by red mechanical-like limbs that add energy and movement. At the upper section, a glowing red sun-like disc with yellow rays and a monumental green vessel shape create a sense of symbolic grandeur.
To the left, a receding arched corridor painted in red, yellow, and grey draws the viewer’s eye into depth, suggesting a surreal passageway. Other elements, such as checkerboard flooring, rising staircases, and layered facades, contribute to the architectural drama. Nicod’s confident use of gouache allows sharp contrasts between saturated reds, blues, and yellows, balanced by earthy greens and browns. The interplay of shapes is rhythmic and layered, creating a visual narrative that is both abstract and suggestive of space, structure, and imagination.
This work highlights Nicod’s ability to fuse cubist abstraction with architectural motifs, giving the composition both decorative impact and intellectual intrigue. It is rich in search-friendly subject matter: cubist abstract composition, geometric shapes, corridor, blue sphere, sun motif, and architectural design. Ideal for collectors of French modernism, mid century abstract works, and statement gouache paintings, it offers both decorative vibrancy and conceptual depth.
