François Morellet

Biography

François Morellet is widely recognised as a key representative of the Concrete Art movement. Morellet was heavily influenced by the Neo-Plasticism and Concrete- Constructivist group in 1950s. In particular the works of Piet Mondrian and Max Bill, whose abstract and geometric principles influenced the way in which Morellet saw the picture field as an infinite structure reaching beyond the confines of the picture itself. Morellet takes advantage of forms offered by chance, allowing his works to adapt and respond directly to all environments in which they are placed, creating consistently unique viewing experiences.
