Lucebert - silk screen

1975

This expressive silkscreen is a powerful example of Lucebert’s late graphic work, in which mythology, poetry, and the human body merge into a highly personal visual language. The composition presents a dynamic tableau of stylized, semi-mythological figures rendered in bold contour lines and flattened color fields. The figures appear simultaneously heroic and vulnerable, evoking ancient athletic ideals while undermining them through distortion, humor, and ambiguity.

The work is hand-signed in pencil at the lower right and numbered in pencil at the lower left,confirming its authenticity and collectible status.

Sheet size approx : 50 × 65 cm

Lucebert (1924–1994), born Lubertus Jacobus Swaanswijk in Amsterdam, was a central figure of the CoBrA movement and is regarded as one of the most influential Dutch artists and poets of the 20th century. His work spans painting, drawing, printmaking, and poetry, consistently challenging conventional aesthetics in favor of spontaneity, imagination, and expressive freedom. Lucebert’s graphic works from the 1970s are especially valued for their synthesis of visual art and poetic thought, making them highly sought after by collectors of post-war European art.
