Gouache, charcoal and graphite on old paper and red chalk. Hand-signed by the artist. Robert Combas’s Tournant, tournant, délirants, la danseuse multipliée en délire de Joséphine (2025) is a dynamic composition executed in gouache, charcoal, graphite, and red chalk on aged paper. The scene presents a rhythmic procession of stylized female figures, their bodies fragmented and repeated as if caught in continuous motion. Bold, fluid outlines contrast with delicate shading, while the densely patterned background teems with faces, symbols, and abstract forms. This visual intensity reflects Combas’s roots in Figuration Libre, blending raw energy with narrative play. The work evokes dance, sensuality, and excess, transforming movement into a vibrant, almost chaotic visual language.

What is Figuration Libre?
Figuration Libre is an art movement that is equivalent to the French Bad Painting and Neo-Expressionism in Europe and America. The term was coined by Ben Vautier and the Fluxus movement. In 1981, Robert Combas, François Boisrond, Hervé Di Rosa, and Rémi Blanchard formed the Figuration Libre group. The term can be interpreted as free style art, emphasizing spontaneity, freedom, and a rejection of traditional artistic conventions.
