About the Item

A large figurative "and" abstract gouache painting on paper and mounted on canvas, powerful and colorful art work obviously expressing the artist's creative performance, at the crossover of Expressionist, Modernist, Cubist, Abstract movements. This impressive quasi-figurative composition seems to represent urban elements through strong lines and gestures, pushing the result at the limit of abstraction. This unique art piece expresses a modern feel with intense primary colors surrounded by black lines, in spectacular panoramic dimensions. It is unsigned and to be attributed, France 1950-1960. The author must have been inspired 'and perhaps close to) by the major early modern french painters such as Pablo Picasso, Fernand Léger, etc... The singular quality of gouache paintings (matte surfaces and intense colors) gives the painting a strong graphic input wich can easily be adapted in an interior architecture or decorative project. The piece size is comparable to a standard dining table or a sofa... DIMENSIONS: 196 x 99.5 cm without frame

An Abstract & Lyrical OIL PAINTING on CANVAS by YVES CORBASSIERE, 1959 France
By Yves Corbassiere
Located in PARIS, FR
A wide and powerful abstract painting, "forme libre", oil on canvas, by Yves Corbassière (1925-2020), double-signed on the painting and on the back, dated 1959. This beautiful composition of powerful colors focuses on an abstract organic or maybe chemical or musical motive driven by an expressionist movement, nuance of textures and subtle paint effects giving an idea of an explosion. Explosion of colors, explosion of music, explosion of life? Yves Corbassière was a close friend of Boris Vian and was part of the French movement of Zazous expressing their individuality by wearing big or garish clothing (similar to the zoot suit...
