Lucebert (1924-1994)
Mother and Child
1987 | oil paint on canvas | 143 × 94 cm
A mother and child are clearly recognisable in this work by Lucebert, but their forms have been broken down into blocks of colour.
Lucebert belonged to the CoBrA group of artists, who focused on semi-abstract paintings with brilliant colour, violent brushwork and distorted human figures. Some of Lucebert’s influences when growing up, such as Picasso and comic books, can be seen in this painting.
