The artwork titled “Ode to the Bievre” was created by Louise Bourgeois in 2007 in the United States. This piece belongs to the Minimalism movement and falls within the abstract genre.
The artwork comprises horizontal bands of color, representing a minimalist approach. A light tan vertical strip on the left provides contrast to the predominant horizontal composition. The bands progress from pink hues at the top through red in the middle, ending with deep blue at the bottom. The simple color scheme and geometric shapes emphasize abstraction, a key characteristic of Minimalism. The overall composition is balanced and harmonious, inviting contemplation of the interplay between color and form.
