Concrete 61

Judith Lauand was a Brazilian constructivist painter and pioneer of geometric abstraction in Latin America. Working from the 1950s onward, she developed a distinctive visual language of interlocking colored squares and rectangles that emerged from her engagement with concrete art and mathematical systems. Her practice bridged European constructivism and Brazilian modernism, combining rigorous formal discipline with luminous color relationships. Lauand remained committed to non-representational abstraction throughout her career, treating the canvas as a field for visual harmony and geometric order rather than illusionistic space.
