クリスティーズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (クリスティーズInstagram)「Georges Mathieu's 'Souvenir de la maison d'Austriche (Remembering the House of Austria)' is a monumental painting that celebrates the exuberance of colour and form for which his work is so renowned.⠀ .⠀ Considered to be the founder of Lyrical Abstraction, he was one of the first artists—along with Jackson Pollock—to apply paint to the surface of the canvas directly from the tube.⠀ .⠀ Known for working at a frenetic pace, the artist unleashes ribbons of paint, spreading heavy impastos, drips and splashes against a monochromatic canvas.⠀ .⠀ The present work belongs to a series of seven large-scale paintings completed in 1978 for a major retrospective organised by the Galeries Nationales du Grand Palais, Paris and is a profusion of colour, blazing from powerful brushstrokes that dance and fizz with vitality.⠀ .⠀ Georges Mathieu (1921-2012), 'Souvenir de la maison d'Autriche (Remembering the House of Austria)', 1978. Estimate: HK$14,000,000 – 24,000,000 / US$1,900,000 – 3,000,000.⠀ .⠀ Georges Mathieu, in front of Souvenir de la Maison d'Autriche, 1978.
