RARE COMPOSITION: GOUACHE "LA FLAMME D'AMOUR" by Robert DELAUNAY (1885-1941) Gouache on paper, framed, signed and dated lower left "1917". Certificate of authenticity enclosed. Provenance: Private collection. Size: 34 x 28.5 cm Very good condition Delaunay Robert, famous French artist, fashion designer, book illustrator and great master of Art Deco. One of the founders of the new artistic style "Orphism". Delaunay began his creative career under the influence of the Post-Impressionists, principally Cézanne. He had a keen sense of the movement, rhythm and dynamism of the events depicted. In 1912, with his wife Sonia Turk-Delaunay, he switched from Cubism to a unique style of abstract painting, which Guillaume Apollinaire called Orphism. This style of painting, closely associated with music, was called Orphisme, a term coined by the poet Guillaume Apollinaire, designating musical harmony in painting through the mythical figure of Orpheus. A new artistic style is Orphism, which is an abstract composition based on concentric circles of color designed to represent the dynamics of light, movement and rhythm. The combination of colors on canvases creates the effect of rhythmic pulsation, the musicality of colors. He was close to the "Blue Rider" creative association, and corresponded with Kandinsky and Marche. Robert Delaunay was one of the founders of simultaneism, the originator of abstract art, and for many years an active promoter, participating in the Abstraction-Création association and the Nouvelles Réalités salon. She was friends and collaborators with Vassily Kandinsky, Guillaume Apollinaire, Blaise Cendrars, Tristan Tzara, Philippe Soupault, Sergei Diaghilev, Igor Stravinsky, Ilya Zdanevich, Vladimir Mayakovsky, Vladimir Baranov-Rossinet, Alexandra Exter, Constantin Brancusi, Herwarth Walden, August Macke, Jean and Sophie Arp and others. His works are memorable at first glance and instantly recognizable. In 1937, Robert and Sonia Delaunay worked together on the design of the Paris Universal Exhibition. Delaunay broke with form with jets of light that deconstructed the image and almost became the painting's main characters. He used to say, "I love color above all, everyone loves light above all. They invented fire". The master captured this fire and its opposition in each of his compositions. In Robert Delaunay's composition "Flamme d'amour", which at first glance seems abstract, rotating disks of color form a kind of lyrical pattern on the surface of a sheet of paper. A closer look reveals a fiery, amorous couple and tongues of flame. These elements, combined with the floating shapes, are intended to celebrate love.
