Composed of 100% silk, this tapestry retains a certain brilliance of light and form when illuminated, bringing Appel's playful characters to life through the use of light, shadow, and texture.

Brilliantly colored and heavily textured, this work reveals Appel's inclination towards Dutch expressionism from which he creates a distinct stylization through the abandonment of formal structuring. Whimsical in nature, the exuberant application of color captures a quality of spontaneity and experimentation.

Color becomes compositional in this large and vibrant Appel lithograph which flirts with abstraction. Tethered just barely to representation, 'Heads like clouds' brings to mind a folk-art dream world.

Karel Appel biographie
Dutch painter, born in Amsterdam. Karel Appel studied at the academy in Amsterdam and had his first show in Groningen, 1946. His early work was influenced by Picasso, Matisse, and Dubuffet. In 1948, with Corneille and Constant, he founded the experimental group and magazine Reflex, which soon thereafter merged with the Cobra movement. It was in Paris, where he had an exhibition in 1949 and took up residence in 1950, that Appel truly mastered his creative powers. He worked freely with color, which he applied in thick blotches as a reaction against the geometric Academicism inherited from neoplasticism, and his subject matter was both broad-ranging and powerful.
A trip to the United States in 1957, where he was introduced to Action Painting, ushered in a new period for Appel, as his work became more dynamic: Two Heads in a Landscape, 1968. He also created polychrome sculptures, stained-glass windows, and mural paintings.
