About
Why this artist matters now
Iaroslav Serpan was a French painter and sculptor of Ukrainian origin working primarily in abstraction. His vocabulary fused constructivist geometry with lyrical gesture, deployed across canvas, sculpture, and works on paper through bold color relationships and fluid composition. Resistant to rigid systematization, his practice synthesized order and spontaneity in postwar modernism.
