Explosion florale, an original oil on canvas in the European neo-expressionist style from France, dating to the 1950s, depicting flowers, sold with frame.
Description from the seller
Oil on canvas belonging to the European school of the 20th century, framed within a lyrical neo-expressionist tendency. The work presents a powerful pictorial language based on loose, energetic, and clearly gestural brushwork, where color takes on a leading role as a vehicle of emotion and expression.
The floral motif is built through dynamic impastos and chromatic overlays that dissolve the form in favor of a sensory and atmospheric reading. The palette, rich and vibrant, combines deep greens with yellows, reds, and whites, generating a strong contrast that endows the composition with vitality and visual depth.
Highlight the well-crafted pictorial matter and the freedom in the brushstroke, characteristic traits of European neo-expressionism, as well as an aesthetic sensibility that balances expressive power and chromatic harmony. The work conveys a strong emotional charge and a very appealing plastic presence, both for collectors and for contemporary spaces.
Piece of notable artistic quality, representative of European painting from the second half of the 20th century, ideal for those who value expressive painting, color, and the energy of the painterly gesture.
