Spanish Expressionist Female Nude Interior Figurative Oil Painting 1981 Artist: Jordi Arrué Medium: Oil on canvas Date: 1981 (inscribed on reverse) Signature: Signed lower right “Arrue” Dimensions: 33 × 41 cm (13 × 16.1 in) Framing: Unframed Condition: Good overall condition. Thick impasto surface well preserved consistent with the artist’s technique DESCRIPTION Expressive figurative composition by Spanish painter Jordi Arrué, dated 1981, depicting a reclining female nude within an intimate domestic interior. The painting is characterized by a richly textured impasto technique applied with broad brushstrokes and palette knife, particularly visible in the handling of the drapery and the construction of the figure. This material approach places the work within the Mediterranean figurative tradition developed in Spain during the 1970s and 1980s. The chromatic dialogue between the pastel tonalities of the body and the structured presence of the deep red cabinet creates a balanced composition with strong visual rhythm and painterly presence. Rather than academic realism, the artist builds the figure through layered color planes and tactile gesture, emphasizing the physicality of paint as a structural element of the image. Reclining interior nudes constitute one of the most recognizable subjects within Arrué’s figurative production of this period. Signed and dated on the reverse: 1981. ARTIST BIO Jordi Arrué is a Spanish painter active in Catalonia during the second half of the twentieth century, known for his figurative interiors and female nude compositions executed with a gestural and materially expressive brushwork. His work belongs to the Mediterranean figurative tradition that remained active in Spain during the 1970s and 1980s, where color structure and surface texture play a central role in the construction of the image. Today his paintings are appreciated within the context of late twentieth-century Spanish figurative painting and continue to circulate in European private collections and the secondary art market.
