AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller


Attention

It is a genuine original painting, not AI, not print.

With the Soulage – Tablet series, the artist does not just work with black: he elevates matter into architecture.
The surface becomes a wall, the paint becomes presence.
Each work acts like an inscribed tablet in silence, where the light no longer reflects — it is inscribed.
This approach goes beyond homage to establish itself as an autonomous visual language, situated at the intersection of painting, sculpture, and contemporary architecture.
A work that we do not look at, but that we inhabit.
International Contemporary Art Review


PopLéa is much more than an artist's name — it is a carefully preserved pseudonym behind which hides a major personality of the international art scene, multiple award-winner and exhibitor at the most prestigious fairs worldwide.
Under this name, the artist chooses freedom and anonymity to return to the essentials: pure emotion, the direct relationship between the work and the one who contemplates it.
Connoisseurs already know that some works signed with his real name reach record prices in galleries, exceeding €15,000, and are part of private collections in Paris, London, New York, Monaco, and Dubai.
Winner of several international awards for the excellence and uniqueness of their approach, they have been recognized in Florence, Barcelona, Geneva, and New York for their contribution to contemporary art.
Her works have been exhibited in group shows alongside world-renowned artists at events such as FIAC (Paris), Art Basel (Switzerland), ARCO (Madrid), Art Miami, and Art Shanghai.
PopLéa deliberately cultivates mystery: no public photos, no official interviews, only works that circulate discreetly among discerning collectors and selective galleries. This media silence has only heightened the interest of contemporary art enthusiasts seeking authenticity and rarity.
Each PopLéa work is unique, certified, and comes directly from the artist's workshop.
It has never been exhibited or offered in a gallery before being put up for sale.
Some pieces from this series have already been acquired by collectors in Switzerland, France and the United States, confirming PopLéa’s rapid rise in the international art market.


HOW TO FRAME:

The painting is sold unframed (just for presentation) mounted on a wooden stretcher and I recommend a floater frame.


The artist Popléa:
If you are in possession of this work, you have in your hands an authentic piece signed Popléa.
But you should know: Popléa is a pseudonym.
He or she has not yet revealed his or her identity—voluntarily. This choice is part of a larger artistic project, a form of experiment:
Create without a name, without status, without a biography.
The work alone. The image alone. What it evokes. What you feel.
The artist behind Popléa is already exhibited, recognized, and collected—but wanted to explore another, freer path. Rejecting filters, codes, and discourses.
Refuse to allow the same people – galleries, experts, networks – to always decide what has value.
Maybe what you have is the beginning of something.
Or maybe it's simply a work that speaks to you, here and now.
Both options are beautiful.
And deep down, perhaps that is true luxury.

The work is accompanied by a paper certificate of authenticity.


The work is signed by hand, delivered ready to hang, in a 4x4 packaging with insurance included.
Happy bidding
