About

Why this artist matters now

Serge Brignoni was a Swiss artist whose practice moved fluidly between abstraction, surrealism, and constructivism across painting, sculpture, and printmaking from the 1920s onward. His work engaged geometric form and biomorphic abstraction with a sustained experimental approach that resisted stylistic fixity. Active through the early 2000s, Brignoni maintained a materialist rigor across decades of formal investigation.
