'D'
Abstract on a Musical Theme. French Mid Century Oil on Canvas.

About the Item

Colourful French abstract on a musical theme in oil on canvas. The painting is signed 'D' to the bottom right and is currently unframed. The work is on a nice old stretcher chassis with 'keys'. This wonderfully colourful and vibrant painting draws fully on inspiration from the modern art genre. Kandinsky is referenced in the geometry of the shapes, Miro through the circle and tendril lines, Picasso through the bold colour palette and flattened perspective with overlaid shapes which are dissected (also a technique used by Georges Braque) and finally elements of Delauney with the expanding circle and energetic colours. A real mix of artistic inspiration and an orchestra in one painting as a violin, a keyboard, guitar strings and two human forms appear. A really colourful and vibrant cracker of a painting.

  • Rectifie, Style Moderne, Abstract Geometric, Impasto Technique Oil on Canvas.
    Located in Cotignac, FR
    20th century modern abstract oil on canvas titled 'Rectifie', attributed to French artist Norbert Palmade. The painting is not signed but was bought from his atelier and with a collection of his paintings and is therefore attributed to him. The work is titled and dated to the rear stretcher. A highly colourful, energetic and impactful painting. The painting is very thickly applied in an impasto technique in parts and is therefore also somewhat sculptural as a piece of art. Sand has been added to the paint to give the image great texture. A strong and impactful painting, a statement piece in any room. Norbert Palmade spent much of his early years living in Morocco. He arrived there in 1930 at the age of two and stayed until 1947 when he returned home to France. He finished his schooling in Hyères in the south of France, then travelled up to Paris to study architecture, though he always yearned to return to the South of France. In Paris, aged 25, he set up a public works business and worked as an architect right up until his retirement in 1991. Throughout this journey Palmade never stopped painting, at first in watercolours. He had always drawn, then moved on to gouache, oil and finally in the last twenty years, acrylic. The latter suited his rapid handling of paint well. He says of himself that he had no particular speciality. He would paint whatever gave him pleasure, although a large part of his heart belonged to those early years in Morocco and he painted many a canvas with subjects from this country. He took part in exhibitions in a number of towns near the south coast of France including, Sanary, Le Pradet and Ollioules. He was also the guest of honour at the Academy of the Var. Geometric abstraction is a form of abstract art based on the use of geometric forms sometimes, though not always, placed in non-illusionistic space and combined into non-objective (non-representational) compositions. Although the genre was popularized by avant-garde artists in the early twentieth century, similar motifs have been used in art since ancient times. Sonia and Robert Delauney...
