'Monogrammes'. French Mid-Century Abstract Expressionist. Oil on Canvas.

1960s

About the Item

A mid-century abstract expressionist oil on canvas presented in a plain wooden frame. The work is titled and there are initials 'G.O.' (artist?) on a label to the rear stretcher as well as an exhibition number. A highly colourful painting full of energy. The dark undulating, at times cracked, open background acts as a perfect backdrop to the two major explosions of colour and energy in the form of two rectangles, white hot, barely containing a whirlwind of circles. Two areas of red smoulder in the cracks, fiery, almost volcanic in essence. There is balance and control in the composition however as the rectangles and related red circles are placed diagonally opposite one another it is as if two objects are in communication or offering us a glimpse of an ancient script/code of a language. An intriguing painting of many levels which keeps the eye interested.
