MORRIS LOUIS 1912-1962 Sans titre, 1957 Acrylique sur toile 270 x 244 cm PROVENANCE Kamakura Gallery, Tokyo Ancienne collection Michel Tapié, Paris EXPOSITION Osaka, Japon, Takashima Gallery, 1958 BIBLIOGRAPHIE Life, 19 mai 1958, reproduit (partiellement) en couleurs page 16. Diane Upright, éditions Abrams, New York, 1985, The complete paintings, catalogue raisonné, reproduit en couleurs page 140 sous le n°78 "When one compares among the works of others, the dizzying point of departure of Morris Louis, whose paintings herald limitless other climaxes of completely open structural invention, as well as more complex chromatic propositions submitted for our attention, one finds evidence of a new order of things impossible to describe in the limitations of a too classically psychological language. Here is a complete art whose magic plays in the highest spheres, from which the emergence of a new aesthetic proposition could lead to another style of life." Michel Tapié Extrait de l'introduction figurant sur le carton d'invitation de l'exposition Morris Louis à la Martha Jackson Gallery de New York du 5 au 23 novembre 1957 80000 / 120000 €
