This impressive painting by Lucebert is a powerful example of his late, expressive style.
Executed in oil on canvas , the composition is dominated by a monumental, almost totem-like figure against an intense yellow background, built up with powerful brushstrokes and a raw, direct energy. The central figure, with exaggerated facial features, large eyes, and symbolic, horn-like forms, refers to themes such as birth, transformation, and existential tension.
The painting is signed and dated “Lucebert 92.XII”, lower left, with an additional date on the reverse, confirming its place within the final phase of his oeuvre.
Provenance: Galerie Espace, Amsterdam.
The work measures approximately 100 × 80 cm and can be fitted with a matching wooden floating frame of your choice.
Created in 1992, just two years before his death, this painting belongs to the most concentrated and personal phase within Lucebert 's oeuvre, in which he brought together decades of artistic development in a direct and intense visual language. Works from this period are highly sought after for their symbolism, emotional power, and strong connection to his artistic philosophy, and occupy an important position in the international art market .
Lucebert (1924–1994) , born Lubertus Jacobus Swaanswijk, is considered one of the most important artists of post-war European art and was a leading member of the COBRA movement , together with Karel Appel and Asger Jorn. His work is characterized by expressive figuration , powerful lines, and a poetic, often rebellious approach to image and language.
His oeuvre is included in leading museum collections such as the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam, Museum Boijmans Van Beuningen, and the Centre Pompidou. Today, Lucebert holds a strong and stable position within the international art market, with continued interest from collectors of COBRA and post-war art.
