Rene Couturier
Space Abstract, Mid Century Abstract Expressionism with Grey, Black, Blue, Red

1966

About the Item

Dynamic midcentury modern abstract expressionist painting by Normandy artist Rene Couturier (French, b. 1933), circa mid-1960s. A grey and black plane comprised of clashing diagonals is accented with details in electric blue and red, creating a galactic abstract aesthetic evocative of outer space. Signed "Couturier" lower left. Unframed. Masonite size: 18"H x 24"L. Couturier was born in Dieppe, Normandy and is an artist whose works display bold figurative lines of the "Jeune Painture" Movement, has an abstract dimension, and a challenging, distinctive color technique. Couturier blends superimposed layers of oil paint with the goal of creating a composition that is a vigorous contrast of color on texture, texture on dimension, dimension on line.
