The graphic artist and painter Assadour is known for his enigmatic pictorial spaces that provoke many a visual adventure for the recipient. Assadour's pictorial aesthetic, developed since the mid-1960s, refers on the one hand to a pictorial interior space - through an actual or implied framing. On the other hand, extra-pictorial associations are inevitable, as our eyes recognise the sometimes machine-like human images. The motivic echoes also include: landscape sections, fragmented architecture, line scaffolding, circles, winding city views and much more. This multi-layered dialogue between external motifs and internal spaces formed the basis of Assadour's graphic works until the end of the 1970s.
