Vertical Composition
Original title: Composition verticale
Verticals of violet and pink vibrate against a turquoise, green and yellow ground, in a textured, raised surface.
€800
An abstract painting of interest for its textures and luminous palette - the chartreuse yellow-green against the cyan and violet creates an energetic chromatic tension - The verticality is paced by the columns (dark violet, blue, burgundy on the right) that structure the composition without freezing it. It gives a sense of the urban or the architectural -buildings, alleyways- The paint, worked in relief, and the visible palette knife bring vividness to the whole. A vertical composition in vivid tones, exploring matter and light between architecture and abstraction.
Register your interestIn Composition verticale, blocks of deep purple, bright pink and burgundy rise against a ground of turquoise, aniseed green and yellow. The planes overlap, outlined by fine dark lines, like façades or silhouettes glimpsed through a stained-glass window.
The surface is worked in relief, with folds and rough patches that catch the light. The eye climbs along the columns, drops toward the paler areas, then sets off again. The painting gives off a joyful energy, held by these verticals that set the rhythm and leave the whole with a real stability.
Ambiance & interior
This canvas will take its full place on a clear wall, in a room that receives good natural light, preferably coming from the side, to bring out the relief. It will sit well with off-white or light grey walls, natural wood, linen, and will converse with a deep green or a petrol blue. In a living room, an entrance hall or a study, it will bring a note of bold colour, well contained by its black frame.
Texture & technique
- Mixed media, stretched canvas, black frame, 70X100 format
- Relief surface, with visible folds and rough patches, giving the look of crumpled paper or overlapping planes
- Flat areas of colour laid down in zones, with softer, hazier transitions in places, notably in the turquoises and greens
- Thin dark lines, drawn freehand, which cut out the forms and emphasise the verticals
- Lighter, scraped touches over the violets and pinks, revealing layers of colour beneath
