About the Item
Nu is an original etching realized by Jean Fautrier in 1937. Hand signed in pencil on lower right margin, Artist's proof. Excellent conditions.
Elegant laying female figure realized by the artist before the Second World War. The contour lines are not defined and the shapes of the body are rounded. This artwork influenced the next work of the artist: the face of the figure is similar to the subjects of the "Otages" which was realized by Fautrier between 1942 and 1945.
Jean Fautrier (Paris, 1898 – Châtenay-Malabry, 1964) was a very important French painter, illustrator and printmaker. He was one of the most important exponents of Tachisme and founded the Informalism with Jean Dubuffet. In 1922, he exhibited his paintings at the Salon d'Automne. One year later, he began to create etchings and engravings. His first solo exhibition was at the Galerie Visconti in Paris, in 1924. His late work is abstract, generally small in scale, often combining mixed media on paper. In 1960, he won the international grand prize at the Venice Biennale. Fautrier has been a very important artist because he elaborated a new language in art between the two World Wars: through Informalism, he has expressed the anxiety of the western society and the despair of the Modern.
