Composition
Aubusson tapestry woven by the Pinton workshop.
No.1/6.
Circa 1960.
Fumeron designed his first cartoons (he would ultimately make over 500) in the 1940’s, in collaboration with the Pinton workshop, he was then commissioned on numerous occasions by the state before participating in the decoration of the ocean liner “France”. His work was figurative to begin with and influenced by Lurçat, then turned towards abstraction, before coming back to a style characterised by colourful figurative and realistic depictions from the 1980’s onwards.
A typical abstract cartoon by the artist, in a style reminiscent of Borderie or Wogensky, and which demonstrates his ceaselessly inventive approach.
