Description from the seller
In Corneille's work, birds often appear as powerful symbols of freedom, movement and imagination. A crow has a special role: because of its dark color and clean form, he 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 threatening and poetic. This fits with his CoBrA background, in which spontaneous expression and intuitive visual language are central.
Corneille (1922–2010) was co-founder of the CoBrA movement and an important innovator in post-war art. His work evolved from abstract to figurative, with recurring themes such as birds, women and flowers. This colorful silkscreen is a beautiful example of his later style.
Framed work.
Viewing possible. We have our own picture framing workshop (85-year anniversary) and work with recognized restorers (Restauratoren Nederland). Please feel free to contact us via our website.
