About the Item

This artwork by Arthur Aeschbacher is a mixed-media collage that exemplifies his exploration of urban materials and graphic language. Composed of torn and layered fragments of printed posters, cardboard, and paper, the surface appears weathered and scarred, evoking the walls of a city marked by time and repetition. Bold vertical bands of red, yellow, black, and white structure the composition, creating a strong sense of rhythm and balance. These graphic elements contrast with the irregular, frayed edges of the torn paper, where traces of typography and advertising imagery remain partially visible but no longer readable. The material degradation—wrinkles, rips, and abrasions—becomes a central visual feature rather than a flaw. Aeschbacher transforms remnants of mass communication into an abstract language, where color, texture, and structure replace literal meaning. The work conveys both energy and erosion, suggesting the constant renewal and decay of the urban environment. Framed in a sober black border, the piece reads simultaneously as a relic and a carefully constructed abstract composition, characteristic of Aeschbacher’s distinctive approach to collage.

Abstract Composition, oil painting by Pierre Coquet
Located in Montfort l’Amaury, FR
Pierre Coquet – Abstract Composition Reference number A256 Framed with a natural oak floated frame painted in black 34 x 55 cm frame included (29 x 50 cm without frame) This work is painted with oil on a paper that is mounted on a board and placed in a made to measure wood strectcher. Stamp of the signature in the bottom right Pierre was very sensitive to abstract paintings. He did a lot of abstract works melting colors and shapes in different atmosphere and style. Nevertheless he could come back to figuration and again to abstraction with no precise period of time. Abstract paintings by Pierre Coquet represent a large part of his production. The constant search for balance between shapes and colors as well as his passion for Nicolas de Staël, André Lanskoy, Alfred Mannessier… takes him on different paths from what we know of him. His way of painting is strong and thoughtful, the lines stretch out and the harmonious touches, applied with sobriety, reveal a great sense of color. Provenance : Workshop of the artist (stamped and numbered on the back) Pierre Coquet (1926-2021) is a French painter who was born in Limas near Lyon, France. He entered the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Lyon in 1942 and followed the teaching of Antoine Chartres, Henri Vielly and René Chancrin. He won a prize in 1945 and joined a movement that wanted to be outside of any school whose name ends with “ism”, (like impressionism, cubism…) between figuration and the renaissance of Abstract Art, bringing together young generations under thirty and eager not to submit to any technique. The “Sanzism” (literally without « ism ») will bring together, among others, painters: James Bansac, Roger Bravard, André Chaix, Jean Mélinand, Paul Clair, André Cottavoz, Pierre Doye, Jean Fusaro, Jacques Truphémus, André Lauran...
