This huge bouquet of flowers in its black vase is presented as an object, without background or frame. For Michel Haas, paper is once again the material of his work, not a support. These red flowers with their green stems look burnt or dusty, as if they had been on display for an eternity, without having completely perished.
About the author
Michel Haas (1934-2019)
Michel Haas was born in Paris in 1934. He studied philosophy before turning to the visual arts […] Michel Haas draws his inspiration from the world around him. Living in Paris, he paints life in the city: people captured in moments of life in scenes from everyday life, men, couples, cyclists, animals, men drinking, musicians, dancers, trees, flowers, everything that makes up life.
