Born in 1929, Le Dené owned and operated the Bleecker Street Gallery in Greenwich Village, New York and was known for his abstract modernist work. This small canvas oil painting by Le Dené packs a big punch with its heavy impasto technique and unapologetic use of electrifying color. Love how Le Dené offsets an otherwise subdued color palette with bright hot pink flowers, which gives this work a more contemporary feel despite its age. The well-chosen carved wood frame contrasts beautifully with the lively, artful depiction of this colorful still life. If you are looking to add texture and a pop of color to your room design, this is the perfect vintage art piece!
