Description from the seller
Robert COMBAS (Born in 1957) – "Flower Man"
Original Unique Drawing – Marker on Book Page – Autographic Signature
THE WORK: THE METAMORPHOSIS ACCORDING TO COMBAS
The "Flower Man" is one of the most poetic and emblematic figures of Libre Figuration. Through this nerve and instinctive drawing, Robert Combas explores the fusion between the human and the vegetal. The thick, saturated black line, typical of the artist, transforms a simple book page into a field of creative force where imagination blossoms without limits.
THE PUNK AESTHETIC OF THE SUBSTRATE THAT WAS DISTORTED
Faithful to the spirit of Libre Figuration from the 1980s, Combas refuses academic supports here. By choosing a book page, he creates a dialogue between printed text and his spontaneous drawing. This recycled support gives the work a raw authenticity and an irreplaceable historical texture: it is a fragment of the artist’s universe captured on the spot.
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Artist: Robert COMBAS (Leader of Libre Figuration).
Title: Flower Man.

Condition: Perfect state of conservation.
WHY IS THIS PIECE A "MUST-HAVE"?
UNIQUE PIECE: This is not a lithograph, but an original work. Combas’s manual trace is tangible, offering absolute rarity value.
LYRIC SUBJECT: The theme of the flower-man is one of the artist’s most accessible and appreciated, facilitating potential future resale (high liquidity).
ACCESSIBILITY: This format allows you to acquire an "Original by Combas" at a competitive price, while preserving the prestige attached to the living artist with the highest market value in France.
HIGH-END DECORATION: Its "Arty" style and format ease its integration into any collection of modern or contemporary drawings.
"Here we have the quintessence of the Combas spirit: turning everyday life into wild poetry. This drawing 'Flower Man' is a graphic gem. Its strength lies in its compact format, which concentrates all the energy of Libre Figuration. It’s the kind of piece that, well framed with a wide passe-partout, becomes the focal point of a room."
