Alchemie 1979

"Alchemie" (1979) is a work by French artist Jean Miotte (1926-). This abstract painting is characterized by broad strokes of color, creating a sense of dynamism and energy. The dominant color palette consists of earthy browns and reds with splashes of blue and white, suggesting an interplay of light and shadow. Miotte's use of impasto, a technique where paint is applied thickly, adds texture and depth to the work. "Alchemie" embodies Miotte's signature style, known for its expressionist abstract compositions and bold, gestural brushwork.
