Nicolas de Staël | The Key

Who Arted: Weekly Art History for All Ages - En podkast av Kyle Wood

My guest this week is Patrick Quéré who shared a fascinating insight into the work of Nicolas de Staël. Patrick's great grandparents got to know the artist in the 1940s as he visited their Paris restaurant. Nicolas de Staël gave Patrick's great-grandparents a painting he called The Key. It was a deeply personal piece, a small canvas that had been resized, restretched, cut and patched by the artist and in the layers of heavy impasto, this abstract seascape reveals a tremendous amount about how Nicolas de Staël developed his signature style.
