This artwork, titled Forms and Shapes, is an etching by Bellme, hand-signed and numbered out of an edition of 100 in pencil. The piece was printed on high-quality Arches paper, known for its durability and fine texture, ideal for printmaking. The etching was published by Pierre Argillet in 1970, a notable publisher known for working with surrealist artists.

Forms and Shapes reflects Bellme's exploration of abstract forms and their dynamic interplay, possibly influenced by the surrealist movement. The etching's creation during the 1940s and its later publication highlight the enduring appeal and relevance of Bellme's work in the art world.

About the Artist

Hans Bellmer

Hans Bellmer (1902–1975) was a German artist and Surrealist photographer best known for his provocative life-sized dolls of pubescent girls, created in the 1930s. Born in Kattowitz (now Katowice, Poland), Bellmer worked as a draftsman before turning to art full-time. Inspired by Oskar Kokoschka’s Der Fetisch and shaped by personal experiences—including tensions with his authoritarian father and a fascination with childhood and desire—Bellmer’s work challenged social and political norms, particularly those of fascist Germany.
