Hélène de Beauvoir
(1910 Paris - 2001 Goxwiller)
Zentrifugale Kraft
Pastos aufgetragene Farbwirbel in Pastelltönen, hellem Gelb und Schwarz, bewegen sich von der Bildmitte heraus nach außen wie eine zentrifugale Kraft, was zu de Beauvoirs charakteristischer Bild-Rhythmik führt. Experimentierfreudig lotet die Künstlerin die Möglichkeiten gegen- und ungegenständlicher Kunst aus, bis sie die Trennlinien in den 1960er Jahren gänzlich auflöste. In dem vorliegenden Ölgemälde ist der Übergang von Abstraktion und Gegenständlichkeit fließend, denn ein phantasievoller Betrachter kann im Bild auch einen Reiter mit Pferd entdecken. Hélène ist die jüngere Schwester der Schriftstellerin Simone de Beauvoir und stand lange in ihrem großen Schatten. Ihr Ausbildungsweg ging zunächst in die dekorative Kunst, sie besuchte die Académie Colarossi und studierte Malerei an der Kunstakademie Académie Scandinave in Paris, wo sie später ein eigenes Atelier eröffnete. Erst kürzlich wurde ihre Malerei in Deutschland wiederentdeckt und in einer umfassenden Retrospektive in der Kunst- und Kulturstiftung Opelvillen Rüsselsheim gewürdigt. Verso Stempel "Hélène de Beauvoir - Galerie Hammer" (Regensburg). Öl/Hartfaser. R. u. sign.; 46 cm x 55 cm. Rahmen.
