AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Oil/canvas, professional keyed stretcher, 60 x 80, unframed.

Jean-Claude Barthel is a self-taught French abstract artist known for his vibrant, elemental paintings inspired by the forces of nature: water, air, earth and fire. Trained as an industrial draftsman, he devoted himself fully to painting in the late 1970s after settling in Auvergne. Barthel's works, often in oil or acrylic, feature rich textures, layered glazes and bold gestures that convey energy and emotion. His art seeks to evoke sensations – light, movement, warmth – through color and composition. Widely shown in France and across Europe, notably in Paris, Vichy and Vienna, his paintings are held in private collections and represented by several galleries such as ETRU and SIMPARGA. Barthel's work offers a sensory journey to the heart of nature.

Light, impressions on canvases with texture effects from the brush fully express his personality as an artist. He loves water, air, earth, and fire. He builds a world from which he escapes, just for a moment on a canvas. At the end of the path awaits the meeting of creator and viewer in the same desire, the same quest.
