André Teleki (1928-1999) - 'Risques à Deux'

Beautiful naive painting 'Risques à Deux' by André Teleki – oil on canvas, Switzerland, 1973 Teleki belongs to the post-war generation of Swiss artists who combined form and color in a particularly personal way. His paintings are figurative, colorful and warmly vibrant, with much attention to human figures and poetic scenes. The works radiate optimism, humanity and lyricism. Thanks to his many exhibitions and presence in Swiss museum collections, including the Musée d'Art et d'Histoire in Geneva, and his regular strong sales at Swiss auctions, Teleki enjoys a loyal collector market. For the city of Geneva he also realized a monumental mural of 125 m². This work, entitled "Risque à Deux" is a wonderful example of Teleki’s naïve art, full of life, full of color. An animated scene in a park, perhaps Paris: in the center a acrobatic couple of tightrope walkers lightly float in the air, as the title also suggests. The woman wears a light pink dress and is carried by a clownish man in a bright orange sweater and striped pants. They balance holding a large, ornate pink parasol. In the background we see the characteristic Parisian roofs against a bright orange sky with a light yellow sun. In the park there are also two playing figures. The painting is in excellent condition and is framed in a beautiful classic gold frame with a dark wood inner edge. Dimensions including frame: H 74.5 x W 85.5 Dimensions without frame: H 52.5 x W 63 The work is signed by the artist in the lower left in red, and back titled "Risques à Deux, a. teleki, 1973”. Indeed a unique, valuable and powerful naïve artwork with a magnificent and characteristic depiction of André Teleki’s sparkling world, perfectly suited to any classic, design or eclectic interior! IMPORTANT: Given the value, size and/or fragility, this artwork must be collected!
