Lot description
Jean Fautrier
1898 - 1964
Sans titre. 1950.
Mixed media.
Signed and dated in the lower right. On wove paper. 49.9 x 65 cm (19.6 x 25.5 in), size of sheet. [CH].
• With his abstract compositions, Fautrier is considered one of the pioneers of Informalism.
• In 1959, Fautrier participated in documenta II in Kassel, and in 1960, he received the Grand Prize at the 30th Venice Biennale, along with Hans Hartung and others.
We are grateful to Dominique Fautrier, son of the artist, for his kind expert advice.
PROVENANCE: Private collection Günther Förg.
Fine overall impression. The watercolor areas are probably slightly faded. The edges of the image are somewhat irregular in places. A few tiny specks of dirt on the upper left and upper center edges of the image. Isolated, small crease marks and a few bruises, but these are inherent to the work.
