LITHOGRAPHY "ABSTRATED COMPOSITION" by Maurice... - Lot 133 - Paris Oise Enchères
LITHOGRAPHY "ABSTRATED COMPOSITION" by Maurice Élie SARTHOU (1911-1999) Signed in pencil lower right "M.E. Sarthou" and numbered 76/125 lower left Framed under glass 20th century 48 x 63 cm (on view) Scratches and accidents to the frame. Maurice-Élie Sarthou is a French painter belonging to the New School of Paris. He produced more than 1,700 oil paintings, nearly 900 watercolors, gouaches, washes, drawings and pastels, more than 100 lithographs, illustrated books, tapestries, stained glass and wall decorations. The objects of his representation are essentially the four natural elements: water, earth, fire and sky. But his art is a synthesis between his visual approach and his inner experience. This "transposed reality", according to his expression, places him, among the New School of Paris, in the movement of "allusive figuration" and brings him closer to lyrical abstraction. Characterized by his sensitivity to light and the affirmation of color, his style is thus similar to "gestural tachism", as Pierre Georgel wrote in the preface to the Sarthou exhibition at the Paul Valéry Museum in Sète in 1973.
