Huge French 1900-1999 Abstract Layers & Hidden Portrait

Abstract Expressionist Composition by Gilbert Pelissier (French born 1924) signed oil painting on canvas, unframed inscribed verso dated 87′ canvas size: 46 x 35 inches condition: overall very good, a few minor surface scuffs from being stored in the artists studio provenance: all the paintings we have by this artist have come from the artists estate, Paris, France. Description: In this vibrant abstract composition, Pélissier presents a playful and intricate portrayal that seems to merge portraiture with geometric abstraction. The subject’s face, subtly discernible within a field of intersecting colorful stripes, gives the impression of a fragmented reflection or a layered memory. The rich palette of blues, pinks, yellows, and greens dances across the canvas, with each band of color adding texture and depth. This piece invites viewers to explore the intersecting layers of color and form, challenging them to piece together the hidden face. Perfect for lovers of abstract expressionism and modern art, this artwork would bring energy, complexity, and a unique visual experience to any contemporary space.
