Aru 2

"Aru 2" by Willi Baumeister exemplifies his evolution from early geometric abstract painting toward a nuanced fusion of organic forms and symbols inspired by prehistoric art. Known for his background as a scenic designer, art professor, and typographer, Baumeister's work often reflects his interest in Art informel and the exploration of form and surface. In "Aru 2," the composition balances flat planes and hard edges with more organic, flowing shapes, creating a dynamic visual tension. This piece showcases his capacity to blend geometric abstraction with evocative symbolism, highlighting his unique contribution to modern art.
