Parade 1961

"Parade" (1961) by Australian artist Charles Blackman (1928-present) is an abstract depiction of a group of figures in a procession. The bold, flat colors and simplified forms create a sense of movement and energy, conveying the dynamism of a parade. Blackman's unique style, often referred to as "figurative expressionism," combines elements of abstraction and figuration, resulting in a powerful and evocative work.
