André Lanskoy “Untitled” Tapestry
This striking handwoven wool tapestry, designed by André Lanskoy in 1958 and produced by Atelier Maurice Chassagne in Aubusson, exemplifies the artist’s signature fusion of lyrical abstraction and vibrant color. Measuring 350 x 240 cm, the tapestry bursts with kinetic energy: intersecting lines, irregular shapes, and bold hues are orchestrated in a dynamic, rhythmic composition. Deep blues form the background against which Lanskoy’s vivid palette—punctuated by flashes of orange, yellow, green, and lavender—creates a sense of movement and improvisation. Inspired by his Russian heritage and deep interest in color theory, Lanskoy sought to convey emotion and inner experience through abstract forms. This tapestry, bearing his woven signature at the bottom right, is a rare and monumental example of his exploration of harmony between structure and spontaneity—translated into textile with the meticulous craftsmanship of the Aubusson tradition. -
