Zwei Interferenz Schnitte (1977) by François Morellet is a minimalist wood sculpture measuring 70 x 14 x 7 cm, featuring precise rhythmic incisions that transform the static surface into a dynamic interplay of light and shadow. This work exemplifies Morellet’s commitment to geometric abstraction and his innovative approach to systematic structures. The parallel cuts disrupt the solid material, creating a visual and tactile experience that evolves with shifting light. François Morellet (1926–2016), a pioneer of abstract and kinetic art, incorporated geometry, mathematical progressions, and chance into his process. As a founding member of *Groupe de Recherche d'Art Visuel* (GRAV), he collaborated with artists exploring optical and kinetic principles. Zwei Interferenz Schnitte reflects Morellet’s ability to merge mathematical precision with perceptual engagement, solidifying his legacy in kinetic and optical art.
