Signed Paul René Gauguin Fabric Abstract Collage, 1965. The piece features a geometric composition with a bird-like form, using a combination of fabric and paint to create a textured and layered effect. The use of muted colors and abstract shapes reflects Gauguin’s modernist approach, while the naturalistic elements hint at his family’s artistic heritage.
Bio: Paul René Gauguin (1911–1976) was a French-Danish artist and the grandson of the famous French Post-Impressionist painter Paul Gauguin. Known for his work in various mediums, including painting, sculpture, and printmaking, Paul René Gauguin developed a distinct style that often combined elements of abstraction with natural forms. His works reflect the influence of his grandfather’s bold use of color and form, yet they are distinctly his own, often incorporating a modernist sensibility that resonated with the mid-20th-century art movements.
