Roger Métivet (1922-2016) Composition "anam 1" Abstract Composition Tower Of Babel Oil

Roger Métivet (1922-2016) "Anam 1" Abstract Composition that could represent the Tower of Babel Oil on canvas size: 65 x 80 cm A teacher at the Beaux Arts in Toulouse for forty years, Roger Métivet became an artist of painting and drawing. Since the 1950s, he has exhibited in numerous galleries, particularly in Toulouse and the surrounding area. At the end of the 1970s, along with a few artists, Roger Métivet focused his interest in abstraction on the publications of the philosopher and painting theorist Charles-Pierre Bru. Exhibitions of group works enriched the practice of "plastic artists" in search of confrontations, debates, and truths in painting. But it is in the solitude of the studio that this truth is revealed to oneself, and it is in the studio that Roger Métivet will compose a succession of works over fifty years, alternating between color and black, ink, lead, acrylic and gouache.
