AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

In Corneille's work, birds frequently appear as powerful symbols of freedom, movement and imagination. A crow plays a special role: because of its dark color and clean lines, it often stands for mystery, strength or the unknown. Corneille combines the crow with his characteristic bright colors and simplified shapes, making the animal at once looming and poetic. This fits with his CoBrA background, in which spontaneous expression and intuitive visual language are central.

Corneille (1922–2010) was the co-founder of the CoBrA movement and an important innovator within postwar art. His work evolved from abstract to figurative, with recurring themes such as birds, women and flowers. This colorful silkscreen is a nice example of his later style.

Framed work.
