FRANCIS LIMERAT Geometric Tension, 1984

Original Exhibition Poster, Galerie Krief-Raymond, Paris, 1984

This original exhibition poster was produced for a solo exhibition by French artist Francis Limérat held at Galerie Krief-Raymond in Paris from May 3 through May 31, 1984.

The composition exemplifies Limérat’s exploration of line as structure and space. Constructed through intersecting geometric forms and sweeping arcs rendered in vibrant orange tones, the image evokes an architectural framework suspended between drawing and sculpture. Rather than depicting a fixed subject, the work investigates movement, balance, and spatial perception, reflecting the artist’s interest in the relationship between surface and volume.

Printed during the pre-digital poster era, the poster demonstrates the elegance of Parisian gallery graphics of the 1980s, when exhibition announcements were conceived as autonomous artworks. Today it stands as both a historical document of the Left Bank gallery scene and a compelling example of late twentieth-century geometric abstraction.
