Serigraph; perfect condition // Karel Appel's Obra gráfica, a serigraph from 1974, radiates the artist's signature boldness and expressive style. Featuring a figure with exaggerated, abstracted features, the composition combines vibrant reds, blues, yellows, and whites against a striking blue background. The figure holds what appears to be a guitar or similar instrument, blending human and object forms in Appel’s signature spontaneous, almost childlike style. Thick, black outlines give structure to the flowing shapes, enhancing the sense of movement and energy. This work captures Appel's belief in the primal power of color and form, inviting viewers to experience raw emotion and playfulness.

What is the CoBrA movement?
CoBrA stands for Copenhagen, Brussels, and Amsterdam; the group was formed with a desire to break away from the existing art movements of the time. Their critique of Western society led them to experiment and evolve into a significant international movement. CoBrA was founded on November 8, 1948, at the Notre Dame Café in Paris, where its manifesto was signed by Karel Appel, Joseph Noiret, Corneille, Christian Dotremont, Constant, and Asger Jorn. The group was united by a shared commitment to freedom in both form and color, and their work emphasized experimentation and spontaneity.
