About the Item
Large Aboriginal-inspired abstract oil on board. We have shown the painting hanging in 'portrait' form but it could also be hung 'landscape'.
This painting shares some of the qualities of Aboriginal art in the use of its earthy tones, two dimensional perspective ( flat as if looking down on a map or landscape from above) and also the use of white lines in place of the often used white dots in Aboriginal art.
The image is very strong and vibrant and a good size and would sit very well on its own or amongst other tribal pieces.
The Aborigines of Australia would create sacred art as a way of connecting with nature and the dreamtime spirit world beyond. Originally the art was ephemeral ( drawn in the earth or painted onto rocks to be worn away by time ) and was a spiritual occupation by men. Often the subject of the art was a map of a journey the artist had undertaken in the bush or during their dreamtime with the spirits, showing the direction the traveller had taken and some of the events that happened on the way. The white dots often used in later works for public consumption were there simply to cover up the spiritual essence of the painting which was sacred and not allowed to be viewed by Aboriginal women or those outside their ethnic group.

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...
