Why this selection of works available for sale?
In an art market saturated with images, it is becoming difficult to find contemporary works that are neither decorative nor anonymous. Frédérique Lafourcade’s paintings and collages follow in the tradition of great contemporary artists (Gerhard Richter, Soulages, Scully, Kiefer, Bradford, and others) while asserting a unique voice.
This selection highlights three works available for sale that meet several common expectations among collectors:
- Bring a living spirit to a living room, an executive office, or a grand entrance hall.
- Rediscover the emotions of travel, landscapes, and reading, without relying on visual imagery.
- Build a cohesive artistic legacy, featuring signed, documented, and traceable works.

Work 1: Multitude
The first play in this selection, *Multitude* stands out as a collector’s piece. This non-figurative work combines dense texture with visual rhythms that evoke a crowd seen from afar, an abstract city, or a musical score. Nothing is depicted; everything is implied.
Characteristics and Spatial Presence
"Multitude" is an abstract painting built up in successive layers. The artist works with contrasts in tone and texture to create an almost architectural depth. Depending on the daylight, some areas become more subdued, while others come to the fore, producing a sense of internal movement.
In a large contemporary living room, a corporate reception area, or an executive-level meeting room, the artwork defines the space, captures the eye without being overwhelming, and becomes a subtle yet powerful conversation starter.
What This Work Brings to Your Collection
• Foster a quest for meaning without imposing a narrative.
• Promote a contemporary visual culture, free from decorative clichés.
• Invest in a work that remains accessible and relevant over the long term.

Work 2: The Blue Hour
With *L’Heure bleue*, Frédérique Lafourcade explores that moment suspended between day and night when everything is simplified into colorful masses and essential lines. Here, there is no figurative landscape, but rather a luminous, almost musical atmosphere that echoes major abstract explorations centered on a dominant color.
A contemporary take on a single color
The work is built around shades of blue, gray, and chiaroscuro. Rather than imitating nature, the painting conveys its essence. The surface is worked in sections, through repeated layers and partial erasures, evoking the traditions of gestural painting and painted collages.
Hanging in a bedroom, a reading room, or a more intimate living room, it creates a calm area within the space and offers a personal, more meditative element to incorporate into a thematic display.
A bold yet subtle piece for your home
• Introduce a poetic element into a minimalist interior.
• Create a subtle connection to landscape painting without resorting to figurative art.
• Showcase an artistic vision consistent with the culture of ARTE, France Culture, and major museum exhibitions.

Work 3: Ink Stains
"Ink Stains " is part of the most experimental aspect of Frédérique Lafourcade’s work. The piece combines spontaneous gestures, controlled revisions, and collage elements, evoking at once writing, mind maps, and archaeological traces.
A Work That Blurs the Lines Between Writing and the Inner Landscape
Visually, it plays on the contrast between very dense areas and moments of breathing room. It brings to mind Oriental ink paintings, musical scores, or ancient manuscripts, without making any literal references.
Whether in a study, a library, or a reading room, the artwork echoes intellectual reflection and serves as a reminder that thought is also expressed through material form.
For what kind of collector
• A work that bridges the gap between art and writing, thought and action.
• A piece that can fit into an already extensive collection, engaging in dialogue with conceptual or minimalist works.
• A subtle conversation starter with your guests, clients, or partners.
