Marcelle Tournié Mid-Century Abstract Oil and Acrylic on Board..1960s
1960s
About the Item
Mid-Century modern abstract oil and acrylic on canvas by French artist Marcelle Tournié, signed bottom right.
A fine example of mid-century abstract painting. This piece has great line, colour and impact and follows firmly in the tradition of the modern art style.
Abstraction has many levels from the highly abstract of Piet Mondrian to the more recognisable abstracted shapes of Picasso. This painting falls between the two where the painting is ultimately composed of shapes and colours yet forms can be distinguished within. A real eye catcher.
There are many theoretical ideas behind abstract art. While some have taken the idea of 'art for art’s sake' (that art should be purely about the creation of beautiful effects), others have proposed art can or should be like music, in that just as music is patterns of sound, art’s effects should be created by pure patterns of form, colour and line. The idea, derived from the ancient Greek philosopher Plato, that the highest form of beauty lies not in the forms of the real world but in geometry, is also used in discussion of abstract art, as is the idea that abstract art, since it does not represent the material world, can be seen to represent the spiritual.

- Large Geometric Abstract. 'Traces No.9 Pour une Archéologie du Présent.'Located in Cotignac, FRLarge 1970s abstract geometric acrylic and oil on plywood panel signed Rivel and dated 1977 to the bottom left. The painting is titled to the rear of the panel. Numbers of colour fields in muted shades jostle against one another. It is the shapes and the space between them which give energy to the painting whilst the colour palette restrains. The painting is highly textured as the artist has applied the paint thickly and energetically with both palette knife and large brushstrokes. At times layers of paint reveal underlying colours. This painting fits perfectly into the abstract genre with its focus on its formal qualities over and above its subject matter. Furthermore the artist experiments with reconstructing shapes and rejecting three dimensional perspective. A fine example of non objective art...Category
