About the Item

Curtain, 1975, by Stanley William Hayter (1901-1988) Oil on canvas 25 x 19 inches unframed (63.5 x 48.26 cm) 26 ¼ x 20 ⅜ inches framed (66.675 x 51.753 cm) Signed and dated on bottom left Provenance: Private collection, France Description: Stanley William Hayter was enamored with French Surrealism and its study of the subconscious; consequently, he used his art as a vehicle for a similar type of investigation. In this acrylic painting, Hayter composes an interlocked composition of elongated parallelograms that combine to form long strands of colors that segment the canvas. These strands, however, are not continuous. The illusion of this continuity is created using Gestalt principles, which Hayter implements to confront the viewer with their own unconscious interest in consolidating shapes and forms.
