Passionate Lovers VIII 1974

"Passionate Lovers VIII," a 1974 artwork by Corneille, is a colorful and expressive piece typical of the artist’s signature style, characterized by vivid colors and simplified figures. The painting depicts two figures in an intimate embrace, with a bold use of lines and shapes. The artist's vibrant color palette and gestural brushstrokes contribute to the sense of passion and energy that permeates the composition. Corneille’s work is often associated with the CoBrA movement, a group of post-World War II avant-garde artists whose style embraced spontaneity, gestural expression, and an intuitive approach to artmaking.
