About the Item

Peter Pierre Székely paint. Unique and important piece. Very representative of the artist and this era. Made with wax and gold. Signed and dated Circa 1970, France. Very good vintage condition. Péter Pierre Székely (1923-2001). Székely’s creation of ceramics, paintings and sculptures flowed from a convicton that art should not reside in galleries; that it should instead be fully integrated into the flow of modern life. For Szekely, his art is a form of communication with a language of signs that are to be read intuitively in a graphic context. Székely’s abstract sculptures emphasizes the physical properties of his materials: their texture, color, crytalline structure and weight. His abstract, organic sculptures also allow for a range of emotional responses sought after by the artist: delight, harmony or peace.

Albert Chubac, Composition, Spray Paint and Stencils, circa 1960, France
By Albert Chubac
Located in Nice, Cote d' Azur
Albert Chubac (1925-20008), Composition, Spray paint and stencils, Workshop stamp lower right, Framed, circa 1960, France. Measures : Width 50 cm, Height 65 cm. Albert Chubac was born in Geneva in 1920. After studying decorative art, then at the Beaux-Arts in Geneva, he obtained grants to travel to Italy, Algeria, Spain, Egypt and Greece, stages which will mark his work. He settled in 1964 on the Côte d ‘Azur in Aspremont in a very Spartan house, attracted by the light, the sun and the colors of nature. The year 1967 is the year of the establishment of the School of Nice. He will work and exhibit alongside Aman, César, Tinguely, Gilli, Ben, Rayse, etc ... In 1990, it was the consecration with the opening of MAMAC in Nice. Albert Chubac then becomes accessible to the general public. He will use solid primary colors, will develop modifiable structures and then develop the collages in three dimensions. Gradually, he broke away from his classical training and figuration to move towards abstraction through the encounters and influences of contemporary artists. Always in search of simplicity, He will radically limit the plastic means with a reduced palette, geometric shapes and simple gestures to concentrate on minimum conditions of possibility. His work, which lies between constructivism and geometric abstraction, is playful and imbued with the artist's joie de vivre. In 2004, following the major retrospective at the Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Nice, he donated around one hundred works to the City of Nice. Albert Chubac died in 2008 in Tourrette-Levens, near Aspremont.
