Corneille — Olympics, a signed limited edition Cobra-style screen print (zeefdruk) in good condition, 70 × 50 cm, origin Netherlands, produced in the 1970s, sold with frame by Galerie.
Description from the seller
Corneille's screen prints are recognizable for their bright, bold colors and a playful, free visual language. In his work he combines simple shapes with imaginative figures, often inspired by travel, women, birds and landscapes. The screen-printing technique fits perfectly with his style: flat fields of color and clear outlines enhance the cheerful, expressive character. His graphic work radiates freedom and joie de vivre and is typical of the Cobra spirit.
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.
Appointments for viewing are available. We have our own framing workshop (celebrating 85 years) and work with recognized restorers (Restauratoren Nederland). Please feel free to contact us via our website.
