About the Item

Gorgeous Karel Appel lithograph advertising a 1969 exhibition of Karel Appel Lithographs in Brussels, Belgium. This lithograph is signed in pencil by Karel Appel. Overall in great condition with vibrant colors. The Karel Appel signature is clear and legible. Some creases on the edges due to age and handling, see pictures for details ! Karel Appel was a Dutch artist best known as one of the founding members of the avant-garde CoBrA group after World War II. ‘I don’t paint, I hit’, he said of his bold expressive style. Appel was born in Amsterdam in 1921. The son of a barber, he received a scholarship to study at the city's Rijksakademie van Beeldende Kunsten. Early influences for the artist included Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse and Jean Dubuffet. He had his first solo exhibition in the Dutch city of Groningen in 1946. From the mid-1950s onwards, he spent increasing amounts of time in New York, where his work started to grow freer and show an affinity with that of the Abstract Expressionists — albeit always with the retention of some figurative element. Alongside painting, Appel worked successfully in a number of other media: from textiles and ceramics to printmaking. Among his most popular works is a series of lithographs of cats from 1978; and a colourful cycle of prints and painted wooden sculptures from around the same time, inspired by the circus. Appel died in 2006. Six years later, his painting Two Birds and a Flower (1951) sold for €840,000 at Christie’s. This set a record for the most expensive price ever paid for a work by Appel at auction.
