MALLIÉ - Lot 7
MALLIÉ VINCENT MALLIÉ TÉNÉBREUSE Intégrale, Hennebelle Éditions 2024 Original cover of the black and white deluxe edition of the diptych, accompanied by its color setting. Signed. India ink and white gouache on paper 50 × 65.2 cm (19.69 × 25.67 in.) Color setting: 45 × 60 cm (17.71 × 23.62 in.) "This illustration is the cover of the deluxe edition of the first volume of Ténébreuse published by Laurent Hennebelle. This image remains "a woman and wind in her dress" - my signature! - but more than that, this woman at the very center of the composition exudes a disturbing power, with these beasts circling around her, among the ruins of the Château noir where she lives. Even if her pose and attire indicate otherwise, she's right at home in this fantastic, ravaged setting, and that says a lot about her personality. This type of composition is often found in my drawings, with a central figure in a setting inhabited by motifs that surround it on either side, and with which it becomes one, creating a contrast between the immobility of the central figure and the movement around it."
