Claude Schürr
Abstract composition by Claude Schürr - Oil on canvas 30x60 cm

About the Item

Claude Schurr (1921-2014) was a French painter known for his unique contribution to modern and contemporary art. He studied at the École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris and was associated with the post-war School of Paris, a movement that featured a variety of styles including figurative art and abstraction. Schurr's style is often described as lyrical abstraction, with an emphasis on color, light, and form. His works are characterized by vibrant, expressive brushstrokes, and a rich, dynamic use of color that often borders on abstraction, though many of his works retain a sense of landscape or figure within the composition. He was deeply interested in the interplay between light and shadow, and his works frequently evoke dream-like atmospheres. This artwork is a vivid example of Schurr's abstract tendencies. The bold, diverse color palette and fluid brushwork create a sense of movement and depth. While it is an abstract piece, there are hints of structural forms like vertical and horizontal lines that could suggest architectural or landscape elements. The overall feeling is one of harmony and emotion, achieved through the balance of color and shape. This painting exemplifies Schurr's ability to blend the abstract with subtle references to reality, engaging the viewer's imagination. Oil on canvas sold with frame Total size with frame 73x43 cm
