Menno Modderman
Contemporary Aboriginal Inspired Abstract.

2020

About the Item

Contemporary Aboriginal inspired abstract expressionist painting by Menno Modderman, a Dutch artist painting in the south of France, signed and dated 2020 to the bottom on the passepartout. Working for several years now as an artist in his atelier in Cotignac in the south of France, Menno, who is better known for his highly detailed and realistic paintings has now turned his brush to exciting new abstract works, in this case inspired by Aboriginal art. Menno's paintings are not just interesting in their form and colour but also their texture. Each painting has a different background created by overlapping colours to create the feeling of base materials such as metal, leather, linen. This piece is painted on linen laid on card and the blue on black gives an effect of a wonderful almost metallic finish. The dots (Aboriginal inspired) give form and boundary to the fields of colour creating great contrast between the colours and also between the enclosed shapes and the freer winding snake-like pattern on the right of the picture. The painting can be viewed from above as a map or simply as shapes to be interpreted by the viewer. Menno has created a series of five of these works (available on 1st Dibs). Each painting allows the viewer to lose them self in the layered texture and the roaming shapes. Something new to be discovered at every turn. They would make a wonderful collection.

  • Large Geometric Abstract. 'Traces No.9 Pour une Archéologie du Présent.'
    Located in Cotignac, FR
    Large 1970s abstract geometric acrylic and oil on plywood panel signed Rivel and dated 1977 to the bottom left. The painting is titled to the rear of the panel. Numbers of colour fields in muted shades jostle against one another. It is the shapes and the space between them which give energy to the painting whilst the colour palette restrains. The painting is highly textured as the artist has applied the paint thickly and energetically with both palette knife and large brushstrokes. At times layers of paint reveal underlying colours. This painting fits perfectly into the abstract genre with its focus on its formal qualities over and above its subject matter. Furthermore the artist experiments with reconstructing shapes and rejecting three dimensional perspective. A fine example of non objective art...
