Product description
Ink on paper. 1969. 43 x 25 cm. This surrealist ink composition is a striking example of intricate, highly skilled line work combined with an otherworldly sense of form and space. The piece captures a dreamlike, almost fantastical figure, blending organic and skeletal elements into a hybrid vision of human and abstract. The sharp contrasts between the fluid ink washes and the meticulous linear details bring depth and intensity to the scene, evoking the subconscious world often explored in surrealist art. The artist’s mastery of ink is evident, as both the soft tonal gradients and the razor-sharp strokes coexist harmoniously, guiding the viewer through a visually compelling, enigmatic narrative. Eugène Eechaut 1928-2019 Since the 1960s, he has exhibited alongside Magritte at the Pfeiffer Gallery in Brussels. And several photos show them together. He exhibited at the Tamara Pfeiffer Gallery in 1969 with, for example: Ambrogiani, Bricault, Jean Cocteau, G de Pauw, De Muylder, Max Ernst, Hilaire, Jamotte, Felicien Robs, etc... as evidenced by the invitation card included in the photos. In 1958 E. Eechaut received his first distinctions as a painter at the "European Center for Art and Aesthetics." From 1968, he participated and organized with "the Tamara Pfeiffer Gallery" and during the 1960s and 1970s. His style, which will initially be called "FANTASTIC" art with elegance and finesse in his interpretations. His colors, which instantly seduce us, reveal the subject, a subject that ultimately captivates us. Throughout his career, E. Eechaut rubbed shoulders with and exhibited in the greatest galleries and art exhibitions in Europe. In catalogs and invitations, we find artists such as Jean Cocteau, René Magritte, Dunoyer de Segonzac, Léon Navez, Félicien Rops, Paul Klee, and many others. E. Eechaut, a wealthy man for whom the sale of his works was impossible, even within his own family. He jealously guarded his production, hence the lack of information and the lack of sales results for his work. His recently rediscovered studio opens the doors to his numerous works in their entirety. The archives of his career were found at the same time as his work, giving it another dimension.

Has a stain (shown on picture) but seems like it’s a part of technique (washed ink)
