About the Item

Title: Mid Century French Architectural Abstract Ink Drawing Signed SG by Serge Guerin (b. 1916), French signed lower right 'SG', name stamped verso Ink on artists paper, unframed Size: 19.75 (height) x 25.75 (width) inches Provenance: private collection, Paris, France Condition: overall good and sound; light paper toning and slight edge wear consistent with age; surface clean and ink strong and even. Description: An elegant and precisely executed mid-century geometric abstract drawing by French artist Serge Guerin (b.1916), composed in black ink on textured artists paper. The composition features a rhythmic arrangement of spire-like structures connected by fine linear bridges, creating an architectural network of interlocking geometric forms. The balance of vertical and horizontal elements gives the piece both stability and motion, characteristic of Guerin’s disciplined yet expressive modernist approach. The intricate latticework and elongated forms suggest architectural towers or sculptural frameworks, reflecting Guerin’s fascination with the intersection of geometry, structure, and abstraction. His refined draftsmanship and calculated use of negative space demonstrate his deep engagement with the principles of Constructivism and post-war French modernism. The interplay between solid black planes and delicately textured cross-hatching enhances the sense of dimensionality and movement. Signed “SG” lower right, this drawing is a quintessential example of Guerin’s technical precision and aesthetic clarity. It would suit collectors of mid-century French abstraction, architectural design art, or minimalist ink works. Unframed and in very good condition, this original piece from the artist’s estate showcases the sophistication and conceptual rigor that define Serge Guerin’s unique contribution to 20th-century modernist art.

Pencil Signed Abstract Geometric Graphic Design Lithograph Print, Bauhaus Artist
By M. Peter Piening
Located in Surfside, FL
M. Peter Piening was born on March 14, 1908 in Grabow, Germany. He began his education at a private school in Italy, studied at the Jesuit school of Kloster Ettal in Bavaria, and attended the German Stettin Gymnasium, where he graduated in 1926. Between 1926 and 1928 Piening studied design at the Bauhaus in Dessau, Germany. There he was taught by multiple famous twentieth-century artists, including Joseph Albers, Paul Klee and Mies van der Rohe. After receiving his master’s degree from the Bauhaus in 1929, Piening enrolled at the University of Berlin and obtained his PhD in philosophy in 1931. Piening spent his early career free-lancing as an illustrator and artist for various publishing companies, eventually settling in Paris to work for Condé-Nast’s French publication of Vogue. In 1934 he moved to the United States to work in Condé-Nast’s New York City office. For the next two decades, Piening worked for many important advertising agencies and magazine publishers, including the N. W. Ayer and J. Walker Thompson agencies and Life and Fortune magazines. As art director for Life in the 1930s and for Fortune in the 1940s, Piening completely redesigned the layout of each magazine. He also redesigned the layouts for thirty-four other major American magazines, including Town & Country and Cosmopolitan. Through his design work, Piening had a great impact on the American public, although the millions who encountered his work most likely never knew his name. Between 1934 and 1964, Piening designed over sixty logos and trademarks for internationally-known products and companies. His most widely-recognized logo may have been the three interlocking rings of Ballantine beer. Piening’s other trademark designs include the Lincoln Zephyr...
