Signed “G.TERZIAN” (upper right); signed, titled and dated “GEORGES TERZIAN MARS 2005” (en verso)
Oil on canvas
A thoughtful exploration of color and abstraction, this untitled original painting was created by French artist Georges Terzian. Reminiscent of the works of Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, the artist’s composition reflects the core tenants of the Cubist movement. Though Terzian sometimes indulged in more figurative geometric abstraction, Untitled is completely non-figural. Instead, the artist's vivid color palette of deep reds, blues and earthen browns and green shines, further complicated by the multitude of textures he produces: crosshatching, polka dots, and even wood grain.
Born to parents of Armenian origin mere months before the outset of the Second World War, Georges Terzian enrolled in L'École de Beaux-Arts of Marseille at the young age of 14, where he began his formal training in drawing and painting. The young artist quickly became immersed in creative circles around Marseille but was forced to put his artistic pursuits on hold for the duration of the Algerian War. Finally settling in Paris in the 1960s, he took up his passion once more, painting landscapes in an impressionistic style reminiscent of Paul Cézanne. The artist’s compositions matured over the following two decades. He developed a highly individual post-Cubist style as he began to explore color and geometric abstraction, looking back to the groundbreaking work of artists like Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso. Terzian's work has achieved wider international acclaim following a highly successful solo exhibition at Galerie Giovanni in Paris, and his dynamic artworks reside in prestigious private collections worldwide.
