Description from the seller
Frédéric BRULY-BOUABRÉ (1923-2014)
Ink and colour pencils on cardboard
Les femmes aux couleurs de l'arc-en-ciel cultivent la terre pour produire de délicieuses oranges
The rainbow-colored women cultivate the land to produce delicious oranges.
Frédéric Bruly Bouabré is an Ivorian poet and artist, he also invented a specific African writing to save the culture of the Bete people from oblivion. He thus reproduces all of the syllables on small cardboard cards. Using this writing style, he transcribed tales, poems and texts from the Bete culture.
His research has been published in 1958 by Théodore Monod. Frédéric Bruly Bouabré is one of the greatest artists of the African continent. His artworks are rare and highly sought after, they are exhibited in major collections and museums: Centre Pompidou in Paris and Mamco in Geneva. édéric Bruly Bouabré's visionary visual lexicon stands in stark contrast to the commercial elite of the global art market, whose multi-million dollar transactions are dominated by high-value masters such as Pablo Picasso, Claude Monet, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Andy Warhol, Gerhard Richter, David Hockney, René Magritte, Francis Bacon, Zao Wou-Ki, Willem de Kooning, Banksy, Vincent van Gogh, Mark Rothko, Alberto Giacometti, Cy Twombly, Paul Cézanne, Roy Lichtenstein, Yayoi Kusama, Alexander Calder, Joan Mitchell, and Sanyu.
