Beauty on the sofa
The odalisque is a recurring theme for the travelling painter Guillaume Corneille (1922-2010).
We think of the odalisques of Matisse, but also of those of oriental painters.
The subject, a crossroads with past art history, is a place of renewal for modern painting.
Large format - Pastel, charcoal and watercolor on paper, signed and dated upper right.
Frame with stamp of Atelier Corneille on the back.
Dimensions: 52 x 44 cm - 73.5 x 65.5 cm with frame
Work in very good condition - Frame with some scratches and traces of use.
Comes with a certificate of authenticity from the Fondation Guillaume Corneille.
Exhibition in honor of 75 years of Cobra in the Cobra Museum in Amstelveen in 2023.
Opening of the Cobra depot in Antwerp in June 2023.
Issuance of a Cobra / Cornelius stamp by Bpost in 2023.
Corneille is considered an important figure in the revival of abstraction in Northern Europe. From 1967 onwards he gradually evolved towards a new, richly coloured figurative style that fitted in with the Pop Art taste of the 1960s and 1970s. He exhibited with Andy Warhol, Arman, César and others.
