Marcus de Vestele (1941-2024) Cobra Scene – Figures in the blue circle Ink and watercolor on paper, 1975 Signature: Signed and dated bottom right: Marcus /75 Studio seal on the back: “Marcus de Vestele – Atelier de l’artiste” Dimensions: 53 × 42.5 cm Sold unframed Condition: General studio condition. The paper background is white (not cream as some photos show). Minor signs of aging and some waviness, consistent with a work from the 1970s directly from the artist’s studio. Provenance: Artist’s studio of Marcus de Vestele. Description Beautiful Cobra composition by Marcus de Vestele, dated 1975. A large blue circle occupies the center of the sheet. In front of it stand two white silhouettes, almost hieratic, drawn with ink only. On the left, a thinner, black, isolated figure. On the ground, to the right, a dark circular form and a long shadow. The treatment is typically Cobra: economy of line, spontaneity of gesture, constant tension between elemental figuration and abstraction. The scene has a theatrical and poetic presence, at once fragile and monumental, like a rite or an apparition. A sober, luminous work and characteristic of Cobra on paper by Marcus de Vestele from the mid-1970s, coming directly from the artist’s studio. Biography Marcus de Vestele (1941-2024) is a major Belgian artist, mainly recognized as a marble sculptor (notably in Carrara and with Bardiglio marble). Alongside his sculptural practice, he developed throughout his life an important pictorial production, for a long time kept confidential and today sought after by collectors. Strongly influenced by the Cobra movement (Karel Appel, Asger Jorn, Pierre Alechinsky, Corneille, Constant…), Marcus de Vestele drew on it to create abstract–figurative compositions of great expressive power. His works on paper from the 1970s are characterized by spontaneous line, free gestural, and a constant tension between figuration and abstraction. His drawings, wash drawings, and gouaches combine the discipline of the sculptor with the lyrical and gestural explosion characteristic of Cobra. Directly from the studio, this on-paper production constitutes an essential and singular facet of his oeuvre, occupying a unique place in Belgian art of the second half of the 20th century.
