Le Regard

---

In this large oil canvas, Le Regard reveals the fantastic, God-given talent that resides in the creative genius of Leopold Clouvel. He meets the challenge of creating both symbolic and emotional content with fragmented, abstract forms that welcome imagination and interpretation. Focusing on the complexity of the eye, French Cubist Leopold Clouvel displays his technique of expressing curiosity or inquisitiveness through fragmentation and reconstruction. As a symbol that can represent different perceptions and viewpoints, the eye in this abstract representation has both emotional and intellectual appeal.

The self-taught artist has mastered innovative techniques to achieve aesthetic effects with multifaceted perspectives. Often regarded as eccentric and introverted, Clouvel communicates intensely through his oils. A distinctive piece in valued collections, Le Regard hints at curiosity with a voyeuristic component that seeks to uncover information.

Clouvel perfected his mastery of Cubism by studying the works of Picasso and Georges Braque, following his own interpretive instincts in his avant-garde studios wherever he found new subjects to interpret. Since the 1980s, selected collectors have chosen his fragmented Cubist paintings with their multiple angles and planes. His unconventional and somewhat esoteric style has a broad appeal among serious collectors.
