About the Item

Mid-century oil on canvas, composition in blue, by Romanian/French artist Philippe Lepatre. The work is signed LP and dated 1958 to the bottom right. Whilst energetic in form this painting is soothing with its colour palette of soft blues. A calming yet interesting work. Philippe Lepatre, pseudonym of Philippe Lazar, was a French painter and engraver of Romanian origin, born on August 6, 1900 in Bucharest and died on November 14, 1979 in Paris. His works are signed, as is our painting, with the monogram "PL". Philippe Lepatre who arrived in Paris in 1928, was a student at the Sorbonne before going on to study architecture in Berlin. During the Second World War, he took refuge in the south of France where he began to paint. Participating in actions in the Resistance, he obtained French nationality in 1947 and moved to Paris in 1953 in order to devote himself to painting and engraving. His work falls into lyrical abstraction and takes on an intellectualized character, his first solo exhibition was at the Galerie Colette Allendy in 1956. His 1968 exhibition at the Stadler Gallery was inspired by his writings on the subject of 'Reality in its Totality – Essay on the Hierarchy, Principle and Function of the Work of Art'. His training as an architect greatly influenced his art as he believed that only abstract art could sit alongside the modern architecture of the time. He wanted his works to be universal.
