Simona Runcan

Simona Runcan made abstract paintings in the 1970s that probed balance and structure. Her Legile echilibrului IX balances jagged planes of ochre and slate-blue. The companion piece Legile echilibrului tilts black shapes against a raw canvas ground.

Both works treat the rectangle as a field of tension, letting edges and color do the speaking. To see how Runcan frames order itself, tap into Legile echilibrului IX.
