Metaesquema 179 - Neo-Concretism By Hélio Oiticica Pack of 10 Post Cards
Immerse yourself in the groundbreaking world of Brazilian Neo-Concretism with this exclusive pack of 10 post cards featuring Hélio Oiticica's Metaesquema 179. Each card captures the artist's revolutionary exploration of color, form, and spatial relationships, offering a tangible piece of art history that you can share or display.
Hélio Oiticica (1937–1980) was a pivotal figure in the Neo-Concrete movement, which emerged in late 1950s Brazil as a reaction against the rigid geometries of Concrete art. His Metaesquema series, created between 1957 and 1958, consists of over 350 gouache paintings on cardboard that deconstruct traditional composition into dynamic, organic shapes. Metaesquema 179 exemplifies Oiticica's innovative approach, where vibrant hues and asymmetrical forms interact to create a sense of movement and depth, challenging viewers to perceive art as an experiential, participatory event rather than a static object.
This pack of 10 post cards is produced by RedKalion using our state-of-the-art, 12-color fine art printing technology, which ensures exceptional color accuracy and vibrancy, far surpassing standard 4-color methods. Each card measures A6 (10.5 x 14.8 cm / 4.1 x 5.8 inches) and is printed on 200 gsm (80 lb) FSC-certified paper with a smooth matte finish, providing a glare-free, archival-quality surface that honors Oiticica's original vision. The 0.26 mm (10.3 mils) thickness adds durability, making these cards perfect for mailing, framing, or collecting.
