Product description
Ink on on paper.
1981
Dimensions: 36 x 27
This striking diptych presents a surreal fusion of the human form and nature, capturing the viewer’s attention with its bold simplicity. Each figure, rendered in fine ink lines, merges with tree branches that grow organically from their heads, symbolizing a deep connection between humanity and nature. The figures’ nude forms contrast starkly with the jagged, branching elements, suggesting themes of growth, inner strength, and transformation. The minimalist composition allows the complex symbolism to resonate, making these pieces a compelling exploration of identity, groundedness, and the delicate balance between human vulnerability and natural resilience. The raw, unembellished style highlights the artist’s mastery over ink, transforming these simple lines into a powerful visual 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.
