Description from the seller

In Corneille's work, birds frequently appear as powerful symbols of freedom, movement and imagination. A crow plays a special role: with its dark color and clean, streamlined form, it often stands for mystery, strength or the unknown. Corneille combines the crow with his distinctive bright colors and simplified shapes, making the animal appear 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 a co-founder of the CoBrA movement and an important innovator within postwar art. His work evolved from abstract to figurative, with recurring themes such as birds, women and flowers. This colorful silkscreen is a fine example of his later style.

Viewings possible. We have our own framing workshop (85th anniversary) and collaborate with recognized restorers (Restauratoren Nederland). Please feel free to contact us via our website.
