Karel Appel Sold at Auction Prices

Painter, Sculptor, b. 1921 - d. 2006

Karel Appel's art is known for its abstract figures in oil on canvas, resembling folk or children’s artwork at first glance. A deeper look at Karel Appel paintings for sale reveals his affinity with Miro and Klee. Appel was a founding member of the short-lived avant-garde Dutch movement called CoBrA (Copenhagen, Brussels, and Antwerp), which rejected intellectual aesthetics and symmetrical constructs.

Karel Appel's art consists of vibrant colors and bold expressions, normally of animals, people, or hybrid creatures with eccentric features that are portals of emotion. He also used intensely colored lithography in much of his work. Signed Karel Appel lithographs done in his lifetime are highly collectible.

Appel’s artwork hangs in MoMA, the National Gallery of Art, and the Art Institute of Chicago. You can also find other eclectic modern paintings for sale online at Invaluable.

    KAREL APPEL Amsterdam 1921 - 2006 Zürich „Beach Serie No 6 - Monument of the Sea“. Mischtechnik (Tusche und farbige Kreide) 1957. Signiert und datiert. Verso betitelt sowie auf appliziertem Etikett betitelt und bezeichnet „# 2534“. Auf chamoisfarbenem Vélin. 56 x 76 cm. Leicht gebräunt. Appel, Mitbegründer der Experimentiergruppen „Reflex“ und „COBRA“, widersetzt sich in seinem Oeuvre der „völligen Hingabe an den Abstraktionismus und an den Surrealismus. Wenn auch ab Mitte der 50er Jahre Linien, Flächen und Farben zu fast nonfigurativen Kompositionen zusammenfließen, wird Appel niemals vollkommen abstrakt, die Darstellungen erinnern immer mehr oder weniger stark an phantastisch-dämonische Tiere oder primitivistische Figuren“ (Saur, AKL, Bd. 4, S. 543).
