Composition Around by Otto Freundlich
'Composition Around' exemplifies Otto Freundlich's approach to abstraction: colour treated not as decoration but as architectural material. Interlocking geometric forms — irregular, mosaic-like — press against one another across the picture plane, creating a composition that feels simultaneously fragmented and structurally whole. The palette is bold and declarative, each zone of colour asserting its weight against its neighbours. Rooted in early 20th-century Cubist and Expressionist thought, Freundlich's work pushed geometric abstraction toward a language that felt both rational and viscerally alive — a rare combination in European modernism of the period.
Produced as an archival fine art print in our Berlin studio, this poster renders Freundlich's hard colour boundaries and geometric precision with exceptional clarity — the kind of sharp, flat-field reproduction this work was made for.
