About the Item

Late 20th century expressionist work on paper by French artist Armand Avril. Signed and dated bottom right. The painting is full of vibrancy and colour with the depictions and appears to be a visual discussion about the artist, life, sex and mortality. In this composition Avril seems inspired by ethnic, tribal art as well as some of the engravings of Gaugin. Armand Avril ( born 1926) is an important French artist, whose distinctive style is influenced by French, African and Inuit traditions. Avril's works until the late 1960's are characterised by a figurative style of painting, with sensual shapes and outrageously bold colours. Later he created mixed-media artworks, and the influence of Braque, Picasso and Matisse is especially visible in his compositions. Avril has recently been accorded major retrospectives of his works and his paintings and assemblages are represented in major museums and collections worldwide.
