Galathée
Aubusson tapestry woven by the Picaud workshop.
With its bolduc signed by the artist, n°1/4.
1970.
Loewer made his first cartoon in 1953; his works were initially figurative before he turned (as did Matégot) toward abstraction, exclusively geometric in Loewer's case. He would create more than 180 cartoons, most of which were woven by his friend Raymond Picaud.
Woven in a single example after the catalogue raisonné, "Galathée" is representative of the artist's style around 1970, whose recurring plastic sign becomes the square, used in superimpositions.
