AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This expressive graph by Jan Cobbaert is composed of a lively collection of human- and animal-like figures that almost fill the entire picture plane. With bold black outlines and accents in bright red, blue and yellow, Cobbaert creates a playful, spontaneous composition in which the different forms seem to blend into one another. Large eyes, quirky faces and strongly simplified bodies give the depiction a fantastical and almost childlike character. The loose, sketch-like lines and irregular color fields reinforce the sense of movement and improvisation. The work thus sits at the boundary between figuration and abstraction, with fantasy, color and expression at the center.
Jan Cobbaert (1909–1995) was a Belgian artist from Heverlee who worked as a painter, draftsman, graphic artist, sculptor and ceramicist. He studied at the academies of Leuven and Brussels and received, in 1937, the Prix de Rome for painting. Cobbaert's work developed from a figurative, expressionist vocabulary toward a freer style in which influences from CoBrA are recognizable; human figures, animals, nature and the child’s worldview recur regularly. In addition to painting, he was deeply involved in graphics, including lithography and silkscreen printing, especially again from the late sixties.
