François Morellet is regarded as one of the most important representatives of systematic-conceptual art and constantly expanded the definition of abstract art over more than six decades.
As early as 1963, the painter, sculptor and installation artist was one of the first ever to use neon light in his works. His approach is characterised by combining the precision of strict systems of order, grid overlays, and geometric structures with the compositional principle of chance.
