JEU DE BROUETTE 1988

"JEU DE BROUETTE," a 1988 painting by René Marcil, is a vibrant and visually captivating work characterized by its bold use of color and dynamic composition. The painting depicts a figure with a skull-like head, wearing a bright orange robe, standing against a black background. A green wheelbarrow, seemingly upside down, is tilted on its side, with a second skull emerging from its base. The background is a mix of vibrant greens and yellows, creating a playful yet somewhat unsettling atmosphere. Marcil's artistic style is recognizable for its energetic brushstrokes and simplified forms, adding a playful yet slightly ominous quality to his work. This piece, "JEU DE BROUETTE," exemplifies his signature style, showcasing a unique blend of childlike imagery with a hint of dark undertones.
