On a light blue background animated with broad black horizontal strokes and a few rhythmic curves, unfolds a cubist profile with immediate, sculptural presence. The face, built from simplified volumes, contrasts a broad pale yellow cheek, almost luminous, with dark, dense hair accented in pinks and grays. The eye, large and outlined with a thick line, the angular nose, and the stylized mouth articulate with economical means that clearly evoke Picasso’s lessons of the 1930s–1950s—without ever being a copy. The neck, treated in a dark greenish flat color, firmly anchors the head, while the bottom of the composition opens to a pale pink area striped with black verticals. The brushstrokes, nervy lines, and spontaneous graphics give the work its raw, vital character. A former contemporary dancer, Gundi Falk translates the face here as a body in tension: rhythm, controlled imbalance, and the force of gesture. A piece of character, of generous XXL format (120 × 100 cm), faithful to the gestural energy and expressive force that run through Gundi Falk’s work. Artist Biography Gundi Falk, born in 1966 near Salzburg, Austria, is a complete visual artist: painter, draughtswoman, sculptor, and former contemporary dancer. Her work explores movement, rhythm, space, and organic forms, at the boundary between abstraction and figuration. Since 2011, she has collaborated with experimental photographer Pierre Cordier on chemigrams.

This cubist composition, both graphical and chromatic, will constitute a true focal point in a contemporary interior. Its generous format, its striped blue background, and its self-assumed Picasso-like lineage make it a piece of strong character.
