Silkscreen printing was invented in the early 20th century. It is a screen printing technique in which color seeps through the mesh of silk or other materials and is transferred to paper or fabric. Areas where the color should not seep through are blocked off. The number of plates is equal to the number of colors used. It was used in the art field by American companies such as Warhol in the 1950s, and became popular as an art printing technique. By allowing a large amount of color to seep out, it is possible to create a thickness similar to that of oil paint, making it the perfect printing technique for Michel Henry, who has beautiful matière (the texture of paint applied with a brush or other tool).

Michel Henry is a painter who mainly paints flowers, and together with Buffet and Brasilier, he is one of the leading painters in the 20th century French art world. His paintings give off a sense of happiness, so he is called the painter of happiness in France, and the king of poppies in America, because he paints many poppies. His transparent colors are likened to jewels. Red is said to be the color of ruby, blue is the color of sawaire, green is the color of emerald, and deep brown is the color of topaz. Michel Henry's paintings are collected by the Museum of Modern Art in Paris, the Swedish royal family, the Principality of Monaco, the Saudi Arabian royal family, and others. Galerie Adeka has been the sole distributor of Michel Henry in Japan since 1995, planning Michel Henry exhibitions in famous department stores and galleries throughout Japan, producing original prints signed by the artist himself, selling painting prints, and managing copyrights.

This original silk screen print is a diptych of still lifes that our company (Galerie Adeka) produced in 2002 in collaboration with the artist Michel Henry. Michel Henry signed it right in front of me. I remember being surprised at how quickly he signed it.

Work Description

This is a still life with a red base, created as a pair with the blue base of "Blue Window." Red is known as a relatively dark color, but Michel Henry succeeded in expressing it in a bright way. By layering red paint on top of each other and occasionally adding white as accents, the red appears bright. Five pink roses proudly stand on top of rhythmically scattered dark leaves. The crystal vase is also dyed red in the background. In the center, a compote of red plums is painted, and plums are placed on both sides to balance the painting and give it compositional stability. The white rim of the crystal vase and the pale, transparent moss green base that supports it are in a pleasant harmony. It is a stylish and fun piece.
