Mathieu was born in Boulogne-sur-Mer, France, and gained an international reputation in the 1950s as a leading Abstract Expressionist. His large paintings are created very rapidly and impulsively. Despite his unconventional technique, he considers himself an historical painter working with abstract subject matter. His paintings are related to American Lyrical Abstraction and to Art informel as well. Mathieu lacked a formal art education. In 1947 he was working for American Express in Paris, France and rented a chambre de bonne near the Palais Luxembourg. There he executed a number of large canvases with a black background on which he painted colored scrolls, whorls and other shapes. He subsequently refined his technique, using a white background on which he painted simple geometrical forms, most often a single line in color. In the 1950s he exhibited fifty of these canvases at the Leicester Galeries in London. We offer you An Air France poster designed by Mathieu Georges in his typical style.

A beautiful colorist painting that was realized by the NY-based Russian artist Rykov ca. 1999. The artist's cultural duality is demonstrated here in a very interesting fashion, as he painted a Russian village landscape - a typical subject matter in his paintings, where some of the buildings are in the shape of English letters. One of them even carries an American flag. In Rykov paintings, each house has its own colors, roofing tiles colors, and shape, that turn the painting into a mosaic of marvelous colors.
