Description from the seller
Oiseau-Soleil combines two recurring motifs in Corneille's work: the bird and the sun. The bird is often seen as a symbol of freedom and movement, while the sun radiates warmth, light and life energy. Through the use of bright colors and a simplified, almost childlike form, a cheerful, dreamlike composition arises. The work fits with Corneille's CoBrA background, in which spontaneity and intuition are more important than realism.
Corneille (1922–2010) was a co-founder of the CoBrA movement and an important innovator in post-war art. His work evolved from abstract to figurative, with recurring themes such as birds, women, and flowers. This colorful silkscreen print is a fine example of his later style.
Dimensions of the work without a frame: 46 x 37 cm
