Eef de Graaf – Geometric Wall Sculpture (Triptych), Netherlands, 1980s

This striking three-part wall sculpture by Dutch artist Eef de Graaf reflects the principles of De Stijl, Constructivism and Concrete Art. Each geometric composition explores rhythm, proportion and spatial equilibrium, revealing De Graaf’s fascination with order and optical tension. Executed in plywood and painted in a refined monochrome palette of black, white and grey, the work achieves architectural precision and visual harmony. The dialogue between positive and negative space creates a rhythmic flow across the wall—an elegant synthesis of structure and abstraction that characterises De Graaf’s oeuvre.
