About the Item

Late 20th century expressionist oil/acrylic on paper by French artist Armand Avril. Signed and dated bottom right. The painting depicts the view through the metal structure of a bridge possible at Marseille or La Ciotat in the South of France. It shows the sea, the coastline and the port construction cranes. During this period Avril was very much inspired by the works of Raoul Dufy and this is very evident in the composition and handling of this painting. His brushwork is quick which along with bold colours gives great energy and vibrancy to the painting. Armand Avril (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.
