Original Signed Artworks & Limited Edition Prints For Sale

Working extensively in Kinetic and Optical art, Walter Le Blanc is celebrated for his work with the Torsion technique – on both canvas and sculpture, the artist would tighten and twist such materials as painted cotton threads and plastic ribbons over a traditional support to create simple geometric shapes and ray-like patterns that produced the illusion of movement.

Twisted Strings is just one among many examples of the aforementioned technique – this particular piece was comprised of string, black latex paint and canvas and was a study of the interplay between light and surface. Leblanc worked and exhibited with the ZERO group and in the latter part of his career began to created sculptural 3D archetypes by nesting primary geometric shapes of circles, quadrangles and triangles.

What is the Zero Movement?

ZERO was an art movement founded by Otto Piene and Heinz Mack, aiming to develop into a large international and cross-border movement. The name ZERO originated from a magazine founded by Heinz Mack in 1957, which became a platform for the group's ideas. The magazine was published for several years before ceasing in 1967. The ZERO movement sought to create a new beginning in art, emphasizing light, space, and movement, and became influential in post-war European art.
