Veronique Wirbel : "primitive Forms"

Véronique Wirbel (1950-1990): “Primitive Forms”, gouache 61 X 73 cm on thick paper bearing the studio stamp.
Slight traces of handling. In what seems to be a primordial liquid, strange forms move, some vaguely human, similar to protozoa under a microscope…
There are encounters that, in retrospect, seem obvious to you.
Such is the work of Véronique Wirbel, who died tragically at barely 40 years old, teeming like a child’s imagination, colorful like the fabrics of Africa that she knew well having spent her childhood there and communicative of a joy that apparently, alas! she did not share…
Of course, we could find her kinship with Corneille, Basquiat or Aloïse, but she was Wirbel, quite simply.
This work comes from the artist's studio, which we were fortunate enough to acquire and which we will gradually prepare and put up for sale.
We are constantly looking for works by this artist.
