AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

A young artist exhibited at the Centre Pompidou in September 2025 on the occasion of the day dedicated to French Young Creation, Laurent Anastay-Ponsolle is a French expressionist artist born in 1982. He works across drawing, painting, collage, and performance, exploring these media with strength and spontaneity.

This artwork is a painting created during a rehearsal with a contemporary dancer. The artist captures the essence of movement swiftly in charcoal. Acrylic paint is then applied to complete the canvas, isolating and emphasizing certain forms. The overall result is raw, skin-deep, and sensitive, echoing the qualities of German figurative expressionism—a movement with which the artist fully aligns.

The artwork will be shipped on its stretcher, carefully packed in a cardboard box with bubble wrap so you can hang it directly at home, at no extra cost. Fast and secure shipping. It is also accompanied by a certificate of authenticity signed by the artist.
