Veronique Wirbel 56 : “dancer With Butterfly Mask”

Véronique Wirbel (1950-1990) 56: “Dancer with butterfly mask”, gouache 29 There are encounters which, in hindsight, seem obvious to you. So it is with the work of Véronique Wirbel, who died tragically at barely 40 years old, abundant like a child's imagination, colorful like the fabrics of Africa that she knew well having spent her childhood there and communicative of 'a joy that apparently, alas! she did not share... Of course, we could find her kinship with Corneille, Basquiat, James Brown or Aloïse, but she was Wirbel, period. This drawing comes from the Artist's workshop which we were lucky enough to be able to acquire and which we will gradually prepare and put on sale. We are constantly looking for works by this artist.
