"Cat" by Corneille (1951) exemplifies his exploration of Art informel, characterized by spontaneous brushwork and expressive energy. The artwork features a stylized animal painting of a cat, rendered with bold, textured strokes that emphasize emotion and movement over realism. Corneille's use of rich, layered surfaces and dynamic forms reflect his interest in conveying raw, instinctual qualities. This piece exemplifies his abstract approach, blending figurative elements with an emphasis on materiality, making it a compelling example of mid-20th-century abstract expression.
