N Simonet
'Première Abstraction'. French Color Field Acrylic on Paper.

2009

About the Item

Abstract colour field acrylic on paper painting titled 'Première Abstraction'by French artist Véronique Simonet. Signed, dated and titled to the reverse. A wonderfully peaceful and meditative painting using colour field style. The painting's muted tones are restful and yet the texture of the paint draws the viewer in to look ever more closely and find interest in the image over and over again. Color field painting is a style of abstract painting that emerged in New York City during the 1940s and 1950s. It was inspired by European modernism and closely related to abstract expressionism, while many of its notable early proponents were among the pioneering abstract expressionists. Color field is characterized primarily by large fields of flat, solid color spread across or stained into the canvas creating areas of unbroken surface and a flat picture plane. The movement places less emphasis on gesture, brushstrokes and action in favor of an overall consistency of form and process. In color field painting "color is freed from objective context and becomes the subject in itself." Examples of great colour field painters are Robert Motherwell, Mark Rothko and Nicolas de Staël. Véronique Simonet exhibited her work at the 'Cercle Royal des Beaux Arts' in Liege, Belgium in June 2010.
