GUSTAVE BUCHET (Etoy 1888–1963 Lausanne) Composition. 1921. Oil on hardboard. Signed and dated lower right: G. BUCHET 1921. 79.5 × 53 cm. Provenance: - Christie’s Zurich auction, April 10, 1995, lot 62. - Private collection, Switzerland, acquired at the above auction. Influenced by his years in Paris, Buchet develops here a resolutely abstract—though not Cubist—visual language. Rather than breaking forms apart, the artist interweaves and juxtaposes areas of color, bringing them together in a clearly structured composition. Guided by an innate sense of composition, he achieves a subtle balance between order and freedom. The colored planes generate a sensuous dynamism in which color itself becomes rhythm. The work thus emerges as a vibrant poetic metaphor, bringing abstraction and emotion into harmonious dialogue.
