About Deux femmes debout à la chaise

The artwork, titled “Deux femmes debout à la chaise,” was created by Le Corbusier in 1936. Associated with the Cubism art movement, this piece falls under the genre of nude painting (nu).

In the artwork, two abstracted human forms are depicted standing next to a chair. The figures are rendered with geometric shapes and bold lines, characteristic of the Cubist style. One figure is portrayed in hues of green and pink, whereas the other is depicted in shades of blue and red. The composition features a fragmented and multi-perspective approach, with body parts and objects reduced to simplified, angular forms. The interplay of colors and shapes creates a dynamic structure, giving the impression of depth and movement within the otherwise flat, two-dimensional space.
