About this work

This looks like a painted canvas tent flap with bold colors. The left side has red and black splashes, the center is bright yellow with green blobs, and the right side mixes pink and dark blue. Black ropes hang from the bottom, and metal buckles hold it together. The paint is thick and rough, almost like patches of color slapped on. It’s not a pretty scene—just raw, uneven shapes. Check out Claude Viallat to see more of his bold, simple work.
