Else Fischer-Hansen. Composition, 1960

Else Fischer-Hansen (1905-1996). Composition, oil on canvas, signed and dated on reverse Else Fischer-Hansen 1960.  100 x 74 (103 x 77) cm. Craquelures. 

“Composition" (1960), a magnificent piece of Lyrical Abstraction by Danish master Else Fischer-Hansen (1905-1996).

Measuring 100 x 74 cm, this large-scale oil canvas abandons rigid geometry in favor of fluid, weightlessly shifting organic forms.

This work by Fischer-Hansen looks like a celebration of colours from the sun and could be inspired by Sonia Delaunays work.

EF-H’s international stature is cemented by historic exhibitions at London's Whitechapel Gallery and the Fondation Vincent van Gogh Arles.
