AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Oil/canvas, on stretcher, 40 x 40, unframed.

Jean-Claude Barthel is a self-taught French abstract artist known for his vibrant and elemental paintings inspired by the forces of nature: water, air, earth, and fire. A trained 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 exhibited in France and Europe, notably in Paris, Vichy and Vienna, his paintings are held in private collections and are 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 material effects at the brush, fully express his artist's personality. He loves water, air, earth, fire. He builds a world in which he escapes, for the moment of a canvas. At the end of the path, the meeting of the creator and the spectator in a single desire, the same quest.
