Parallel lines: Making its auction debut, Fritz Glarner’s ‘Relational Painting, No. 60’ is part a series that dominated the #Swiss artist’s mature work and perfectly illustrates the singular compositional principles of #Glarner’s #painting. He emigrated to the United States in the 1930s and following Piet Mondrian’s arrival in #NewYork in 1940, the two artists established contact and regularly met at each other’s apartments.

The horizontal-vertical grid and the use of strong primary colours combined with various shades of grey reflect the influence of #Mondrian, though in contrast to the rigid dogma of Mondrian’s #abstraction, Glarner introduced subtly sloping diagonal lines, creating a dynamic sense of fluidity and movement.

Making its first appearance on the #auction market, this striking work will be sold in our #Impressionist & Modern Art Evening Sale on Wednesday to benefit the acquisitions fund of the Museum of Modern Art, New York.
