Description from the seller

Monotype ink circa 1960, framed: 30x23 cm

Georges Folmer is today recognized as an important figure in post-war French abstraction. His work is present in the largest French public and museum collections, confirming the historical and institutional solidity of his work.

Very attached to paper and ink techniques, Folmer produced works of great finesse, long kept in private collections. As a result, Folmer's works rarely appear on the market, especially the colored inks and compositions from the 1960s, a period that is today the most sought-after.

This rarity, combined with established institutional recognition, gives his works a certain patrimonial and collecting value. Each appearance on the market thus constitutes a remarkable opportunity for fans of abstract art and seasoned collectors.
