About Table corail

The artwork “Table corail” was created by Jean Dubuffet in 1953. It is categorized within the Tachisme movement, which is known for its spontaneous and intuitive form of abstraction. The piece is part of Dubuffet’s “Texturologies” series and is characterized as an abstract work.

“Table corail” features a dense network of overlapping lines and scribbles that create a highly textured surface. Shades of beige and earth tones dominate the central area, evoking a sense of organic matter or natural elements that have been subjected to the passage of time. The surrounding border is darker, providing a stark contrast to the lighter and intricately detailed center. The dynamic interplay of lines and the rawness of the presentation are emblematic of Dubuffet’s interest in the unconventional and the spontaneous.
