    Georges Mathieu—the 's' is silent, the work: loud. ⠀ "Georges Mathieu was one of the foremost French artists active during the 1950s and 60s. The centenary of his birth offers an ideal occasion to look back at the career of an artist and theorist who dedicated his life to an emotive, gestural, and highly nonrepresentational form of abstraction that had no correlative in the empirical world. The founder of Lyrical Abstraction, a movement that rejected the legacy of European geometric abstraction launched by Picasso’s Cubism and Mondrian’s De Stijl, Mathieu deeply influenced generations of artists working in the realm of performance and action-based painting." — Nancy Spector ⠀ Journey through Mathieu’s abstracted world now through October 23rd at Perrotin NY. — #GeorgesMathieu #LyricalAbstraction #NahmadContemporary #PerrotinNewYork #Perrotin #ActionPainting #AbstractExpressionism — Georges Mathieu, La Victoire de Denain [The Victory of Denain], 1963.

    👨🏻‍🎨🙏🏻 Merci Nancy Spector for this well-informed and well-deserved deep look at Mathieu in the context of American art history! ⠀ 𝘙𝘦𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘧𝘳𝘰𝘮 @nespector⠀ An exhibition of the French artist Georges Mathieu opened yesterday at Perrotin (and Nahmad Contemporary). This show marks a long overdue reevaluation of this important artist’s career. Once revered in the United States during the 1950s for his advocacy for lyrical abstraction and his support of the abstract expressionists, Mathieu was effectively written out of American art history because of the flamboyant and performative nature of his art. He made many of his paintings in front of live audiences with a flair for the theatrical and an embrace of pure velocity, completing massive canvases in under an hour. That combined with his themes celebrating French monarchy made him unpopular with left. A font of contradictions, yet an undeniable, catalytic force in French art, Mathieu deserves a deep look, which is what this project provides. @galerieperrotin @nahmadcontemporary

    Georges Mathieu’s extensive survey show opens today at Perrotin NY! ⚡️ ⠀ Spread across 2-floors of our NY gallery space, this celebratory exhibition reevaluates Mathieu’s significant contributions to the development of post-war abstraction. ⠀ Playing a decisive role in postwar painting, Mathieu diverted from the geometrical abstractions dominating the previous era by forging a visual language that favored form over content and gesture over intent, and harnessed uninhibited creative expression. ⠀ ✨ This presentation features works from the French artist’s estate, many of which are on view for the very first time, as well as artworks from the generous institutions and museums tagged in this post. ⠀ There’s more: Celebration of the artist’s centennial continues over at @NahmadContemporary where exhibition of Mathieu’s timeless works runs concurrently. ⭐️ — #GeorgesMathieu @GaleriePerrotin #NahmadContemporary #PerrotinNY #Perrotin @AlbrightKnox @MFAHouston @PhillipsCollection @TheWadsworth @MichiganStateU #ActionPainting #AbstractExpressionism #LyricalAbstraction — Views of Georges Mathieu's exhibition at Perrotin New York, 2021.
