Olivier DEBRE (1920-1999) - Composition, 1968 Ink on paper, signed in pencil and dated (19)68 lower right 49 x 63.5 cm (view) Note: Famous for his vast abstract landscapes, Olivier Debré uses ink as a medium to capture the dynamic essence of nature and human emotion. Each work is a visual dance in which fluid hues mingle and expand, creating compositions that seem to breathe and pulse on the canvas. Debré's inks reveal an artistic depth that transcends the limits of figurative representation, inviting the viewer to poetic introspection. Through his spontaneous and deliberate gestures, the artist succeeds in expressing states of mind and inner landscapes with striking intensity. Each work of ink thus becomes a window onto a world where color and movement combine to evoke deep, universal emotions.
