Description
Roger BEZOMBES (Paris 1913-1994) Chronochromy, 1962 Oil on fabric and collage mounted on canvas 92 x 73 cm Signed lower right roger bezombes Bears on the stretcher the autograph mention 3 quai Saint Michel Paris "Chronochromie". Provenance Private collection of the artist Exhibitions: 1962, Musée de l'Athénée, Geneva 1962, Musée de Cagnes sur Mer 1962, André Weil Gallery, Paris 1962, Salon Comparaison, Paris 1963, Galerie Hilt, Basel 1964, Galerie Socrate, Bienne 1964, Galerie Verena Muller, Bern 1968, Musée Réattu, Arles 1970, Musée des Beaux Arts, Nancy 1971, Musée des Beaux-Arts, Nîmes 1972, Musée des Ursulines, Mâcon 1987, Tokyo/Osaka retrospective, reproduced in the catalogue. Chronochromie belongs to this last period, during which the painter introduced non-figurative elements into his compositions. But here this encounter is proposed in a more complex way. The figurative central section, enriched with collages, is contrasted with the lower part of the painting, composed of abstract forms simplified by the use of a monochrome hue, and the upper part, which displays with aplomb the use of an upholstery fabric that emphasises the lack of depth of the whole.
