Description
Oil on canvas, framed. Featuring an abstract expressionist composition. Signed in the Manner of Hans Hofmann (American, 1880-1966) on the lower right corner. 39.5 x 44 cm (15.6 x 17.3 inches), frame: 50 x 55 cm (19.7 x 21.7 inches). Hans Hofmann began painting in Paris, where he worked alongside such titans of European Modernism as Pablo Picasso, Georges Braque, Fernand Leger, and Henri Matisse. His best-known early paintings combine Cubist structure with Fauvist color, as in Untitled (1943). Although he would eventually be considered one of the preeminent Abstract Expressionists, having relocated to New York in 1932, Hofmann’s primary interest was in pictorial phenomena: the illusion of three-dimensional space, composition, and the optical effects of color. PROVENANCE: Southern Ontario estate
