Untitled is an abstract composition drawing in watercolor realized by Gustave Singier. Monogrammed by the Artist. Included a Passepartout:49 x 34 Very good conditions. Beautiful mixed colored composition on the tones yellow and red by the Belgian painter Gustave Singier (Comines-Warneton, 1909 – Paris, 1984), active in France as member of the new Paris School of Lyrical Abstraction and the Salon de Mai. After meeting the painter Charles Walch, who encouraged him and showed him the freedom of pictorial expression, he started participating in numerous Parisian Salons from 1936: the Salon des Independants, the Salon d’Automne, the Salon des Tuileries, etc. In 1945, he became one of the founding members of the Salon de Mai. Like other painters of his generation, Singier drew inspiration from Kandinsky, Klee, and Mondrian. In this period, his art became more fluid, thanks to the effects of watercolor. This is the field in which the artist excels. The oeuvre of Gustave Singier is eclectic: mural paintings, tapestries, stain glasses, mosaics, costume and theatre set designs, burin engravings, lithographs, and illustrated works. He also taught in Paris, at the Ranson Academy from 1951 to 1954, then at the School of Fine Arts from 1967 to 1978. The artist died in Paris in 1984. This piece is attributed to the mentioned designer/maker. It has no attribution mark and no
