Composition 1952

"Composition" is a dynamic abstract painting by Canadian artist Jean-Paul Riopelle, created in 1952. Characterized by a vibrant palette and gestural brushstrokes, the artwork showcases Riopelle's signature style, known as "tachisme" or "lyrical abstraction." This style emphasizes spontaneous expression, using thick impasto and energetic brushstrokes to evoke emotion and raw energy. The bold colors and chaotic composition of "Composition" create a sense of movement and depth, capturing the essence of abstract art.
