The paintings of the Rose Series are among Evard’s key works<\/strong>. They vividly illustrate the successive abstraction process of modernism, which leads from figurative representation to a largely abstract depiction of pictorial subjects. In “Roses blanches,” the classical subject of painting still features a rather plastic pictorial design, although the monochrome use of grey and earth tones already indicates initial steps towards abstraction. With “Roses rouges,”<\/strong> one can observe for the first time a consistent dissolution of the objective towards a geometric shaping<\/strong>. The rose petals are depicted as rotating circles on a hemisphere, and the background is structured into geometric planes. This abstraction process<\/strong> continues in the compositions of “Roses bleues.” The plasticity of the foreground, previously suggested by shading, is now abandoned in favor of a purely geometric, planar construct. The symmetrical arrangement around the central axis creates a spatially detached structure of forms and colors \u2013 an independent pictorial solution<\/strong> that impresses primarily with the precision of its drawing and its finely tuned color scheme. <\/p>\n\n
