In 1948, he entered the School of Art and Design at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. Gordon Webber (a former student of Laszlo Moholy-Nagy) was the most influential in guiding Tousignant's career. Webber introduced him to avant-garde and modern art theories, particularly those of the Bauhaus as reflected in the simple circular shapes and colours of this powerful optic series. In this work the viewer encounters a serial repetition of elements that can be admired for their consistency and colour. In this 1975 suite of six silkscreens, Tousignant explores how forms move through space and how colours interact. The set of concentric circles seem to coexist on a singular spatial plane. They are devoid of hierarchy in their composition and the power, instead, comes from its dramatic sense of movement. Here, the colours seem to undulate and impede upon each other from their own circles to create an optical vibration. This rare series of six silkscreens has not appeared on the market as a set in decades of recorded sales.Estimate: $8,000-10,000

      Claude Tousignant 1932 - Canadian oil on canvas diptych Double 36 (Mars Phthalocyanine) 36 diameter (each) inches 91.4 diameter (each) centimeters on verso signed only on the green-and-yellow work, titled on each, dated 1974 on each and stamped with the Tousignant stamp on each Literature:Roald Nasgaard, Abstract Painting in Canada, 2007, page 191 Provenance:Estate of Arthur Erickson, Vancouver Claude Tousignant emerged from the ferment of creativity in Montreal in the late 1940s, having been a student at the School of Art and Design at The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. In the 1950s, Tousignant leapt through a number of directions in abstraction, from a tachist application influenced by the Automatists to flat simple colour planes derived from his interest in Piet Mondrian. The 1960s saw Tousignant's work enter into the realm of colourful Op Art, and his stated intent was to create an art "emptied of all extraneous matter - to the point at which painting is pure sensation."" At this time, the circle was Tousignant's main structural element, with works referred to as targets, chromatic transformers, gongs and chromatic accelerators, and this continued into the 1970s. He painted a group of circular diptychs, such as this vibrant duo, in which he explored their chromatic relationships. Double 36 (Mars Phthalocyanine) contains a vital contrast between a bright blue, yellow and green circle and a monochromatic grey and black one. These pure, reductive paintings are pulsating icons of chromatic space, radiating their optical stimulus for us to experience.

      Claude Tousignant 1932 - Canadian acrylic on canvas Tableau vert - 1 44 x 44 inches 111.7 x 111.7 centimeters on verso signed, titled and dated 1983 Literature:James D. Campbell, After Geometry, the Abstract Art of Claude Tousignant, 1995, page 114 Provenance:Private Collection, Montreal With a body of work that spans five decades, Claude Tousignant is one of Canada's most renowned abstract painters and sculptors. After taking part in the second wave of the Plasticien movement, his avant-garde abstractions have continued to evolve from his geometric to his monochromatic and polychromatic periods, in an explorative quest towards a new pictorial and spatial language. James Campbell describes the series this work is from succinctly: "In late 1983, Tousignant undertook a new series entitled Polychromes. These pieces have deep stretchers, and so have deep sides, all of which are painted in colours different from - either complementary to, or contrasting with - that of the frontal monochrome's surface. It is the chromatic distinction of their sides that makes these works polychromes rather than monochromes. The polychromes represent a crucial stage in the evolution of Tousignant's entire body of work for the radical spatiality is brought into play in these works with tremendously engaging results." Please note that each of the four edges of this work is in a different colour: grey, green, red and blue.
