French Green-white-black Art Nouveau Poster Advertising with Cancan Dance, 1980s
About the Item
Advertising poster for an event featuring "cancan dancers" with printed event information and a well-staged dancer in motion with her petticoat billowing.
Frou-Frou also signifies the sound that ladies' petticoats made of relatively stiff fabrics like taffeta (came into fashion around 1900) make when they move.
The motif, font and decoration clearly point to the turn of the century and the cancan dances that were very popular in Paris at the time.
The cancan is a fast French dance in 2/4 time, which originated around the year 1830 in Paris.
The most famous music for the dance was created by Jacques Offenbach in his operetta "Orpheus in the Underworld", which premiered in 1858.
At the Moulin Rouge, the cancan is still one of the attractions.
Very decorative poster with a vivid motif of a cancan dancer in black, white and green colors.
Handmade frame with delicate profile and white gold decoration.

- Italian Art Informel Painting Black, Grey, Red, Blue by Danilo Picchiotti, 1987Located in Salzburg, ATFantastic large abstract informal painting with a poectic note in wonderful colors signed Danilo Picchiotti 1987. The original artist frame in red allows the artistic design to run into the frame or integrates the frame into the artwork Childhood and the French period Danilo Picchiotti was born in 1933. His childhood and youth are characterized by the restless search of an artistic expression for his own sensibility and perception, as well as his very strong sense of existence. This would eventually lead him to join an art club known as “I Pennelacci” (the Paintbrushes) in his hometown in Rome at the early age of 18. He then starts devoting himself exclusively and passionately to reading and painting. He moves to Paris in 1952. In Paris he explores the stimulating and innovativeenvironmentsrepresented by the local versions of Surrealism of the period. From that moment onwards, he allows his own existence to be overwhelmed by his art until he becomes his art’s main subject, firmly convinced that self-consciousness and stylistic research are closely linked. This immense labour will find the truest expression of his artistic and existential sensibility in Surrealism. From his early career to action painting. During the early 1970s, the artistic environment in Rome and his successful participation to several collective art exhibitions, especially with the “Pennellacci” club, leads him to his public debut and paves the way to a very important and busy period. Later on, after enormous intellectual labour, he approaches the gestural informal painting, also known as “Action Painting”. This art movement was mostly developed in the United States, and is also called Abstract Expressionism. The most celebrated artist of this movement is Jackson Pollock. In 1986 Danilo Picchiotti holds a number of exhibitions of works that are strongly influenced by this art movement (action painting). The latest works of the artist. In Europe, the French painter Jean Fautrier begins incorporating his paintings with plastic materials that burst out of the canvas, overcoming the boundary between two-dimensional images and plastic forms. This type of painting will be called “Matter Painting”; other painters will join this movement including Jean Dubuffet, Antoni Tápies and the Italian Alberto Burri. While some artists hide into the sign, others, including Picchiotti, emphasises the matter that identifies the work itself, by choosing any kind of material such as wood, fabric, glass, wall or even colour, which are arranged on the canvas, assuming their own physicality and are transformed, layer by layer, by using fire, water and other elements. Beginning from 2000, after several years of artistic inactivity due to health problems, Danilo Picchiotti, today more culturally open-minded than ever, returns to painting with determination, strength and energy giving birth to his new “GESTURAL MATTER” period.
