Description
Salnave Philippe-Auguste
(Haitian/Saint Marc, 1908-1989)
Gemini (Ruler Mercury), circa 1980's
Oil on masonite, 18 x 11 1/2 in.
Framed 21 3/8 x 15 1/4 in.
House of Heydenryk Frame
Provenance: Dr. Havlor & Astrid Jaeger Collection
Lot Essay: A poet and lawyer by profession, Philippe-Auguste often, in the manner of Matisse's later practice, worked with cut-outs. For Philippe-Auguste, however, the cut-outs were primarily a foundational layering tool that, once traced, allowed him to paint with playful combinations of saturated color. From landscapes to mythical figures, historical and literary archetypes are reinterpreted through Philippe-Auguste's fantastical magical imagination.
