About Day-Night, Soleil

The clean, contemporary lines of this large graphic diptych were created by Canadian artist Yvonne Lammerich. This is one of a series of paint and paper collage pieces that were shown at the Maison des Congrés in Paris. Each side of the diptych mirrors the other in form and colour—the palette a golden yellow, mandarin, deep red, black and white. Here the artist is exploring the idea of similarity and difference expressed in form and colour.

“I .. liked the idea of integrating materials of different origins and purposes.”
Yvonne Lammerich

"Lammerich has always been interested in patterns, but patterns understood through the sieve of a colour-sensibility and syntax that conserves its freshness, its originality and its dynamism." James Campbell, Galerie Clara Maria Sels, Düsseldorf
