Superb vintage mid-century modern African art painting, depicting a stylized and dynamic traditional dance scene. This work is created in gouache with vibrant colors (orange, blue, white, red) on a deep black background. It showcases the projection technique and the slender silhouettes characteristic of the renowned Poto-Poto School (Brazzaville, Congo). Major features: • Artist: Signed "Gampio" in the lower right for Pierre Claver N'Gampio (1927-2009), a major artist of the second generation of the movement and an iconic figure who led the Poto-Poto School until his death. • Medium: Original painting done directly on a rigid wood panel (Isorel type) from the period, a quality medium typical of authentic works from this movement. • Framing: Sold in its original wooden frame with a beige fabric mat and silver trim, perfectly reflecting the design of the 1960s-1970s. • Condition: Beautiful vintage conservation state. The colors remain very vibrant, and the medium is stable. Photos of the back of the wood panel and frame are available to attest to its natural age. A piece of African popular art that is both historical, graphic, and very decorative, ideal for a vintage or contemporary interior. Fast and careful shipping in reinforced protective packaging.
