Anna Eve BERGMAN (1909-1987) "Abstract Expressionism" Tempera, mixed technique with gold leaf on paper. Monogrammed AEB 1962 on the front, numbered "n°38 1962" and dedicated on the back "Avec toutes mes amities, Anna Eva". A few small tears. "Anna Eve Bergman, die Ehefrau von Hans Hartung, begann 1957 ihre ersten Gemalde mit Blattgold und Blattsilber zu malen, eine sehr personliche Technik, die sie bis Ende der 1960er Jahre verwendete. Sie fixierte Silber-, Gold- oder Kupferblatter mit einer Art Tempera und Lack auf der Leinwand. Das Metall zeichnet dann eine Form, die das Licht einfangt und es wie ein Spiegel reflektiert. Meistens verschwindet die Metallfolie jedoch, wird mit einer Schicht aus ockerfarbener, roter oder ultramarinblauer Farbe uberzogen und kommt dann durch Abkratzen oder Einschneiden wieder zum Vorschein." 2023 zeigt das Musee d'Art Moderne in Paris die erste grose Retrospektive, die der norwegischen Kunstlerin Anna-Eva Bergman (1909-1987) gewidmet ist. Sie ist eine Schlusselfigur der Nachkriegsmalerei, eine freie und visionare Kunstlerin, deren plastisches Werk, das sich durch die Verwendung von Blattgold oder Blattsilber auszeichnet, eine kraftvolle Feier der Schonheit der Natur, der Landschaften des Nordens und des Mittelmeers ist. - Weight: 2.45 kg - Shipping unavailable - Region: France - Sizes: H 525MM X L 720MM AVEC CADRE - At first glance: normal wear / patina of use

Important SONGYE male statue from the TSHOFA region, collected around 1900. The workshops of the Kalebwe ya Ntambwe produced remarkable works, characterized by several distinctive elements: the choice of wood, its stain, the imposing size of the object, the quality of the craftsmanship of both the sculptor and the blacksmith, as well as the accumulation of signs symbolizing identity, authority and magical power*. The morphological characteristics of this work are similar to those of figures 126 (RMCA Tervuren) and 127 (Musee ethnographique d'Anvers) in Neyt's "La redoutable statuaire Songye d'Afrique centrale", suggesting that they were probably made by the same artist. This large effigy is distinguished by its large cone-shaped eyes, and by the use of metal all over the face, in the form of copper strips, its large horn inlaid in the head and the large flat feet carved flush with the base. *Litt. Francois Neyt "La redoutable statuaire Songye d'Afrique centrale". Provenance: Alix Marechal Collection, by descent to the current owner. - Weight: 6.30 kg - Shipping unavailable - Sizes: H 850MM X L 360MM - At first glance: good condition
