<div><font face=Lato size=3><em>Flowers Before the Sun</em>, a monumental 1989 oil on canvas by James Rosenquist, stands out as a pinnacle of his 1980s floral series, weaving vibrant botanical forms with faint human traces. A key figure of 1960s Pop Art, Rosenquist transitioned from his early commercial-driven works to a deeply personal style, a change reflected in this painting’s dazzling array of flowers in yellows and reds set against a swirling, cosmic backdrop of whites, purples, and oranges. Inspired by the move of his studio to Aripeka, Florida, and the adoption of advanced color photocopier technology, the work fuses nature’s splendor with abstract flair in a fresh approach. </font></div><br><br><div> </div><br><br><div><font face=Lato size=3>The striated layers of hyper-detailed imagery and profusion of warm colors evoke a radiant, otherworldly sun, while subtle human hints add intimacy, reflecting his distinctive blend of advertising heritage with personal vision.

...MOINS.....
Flowers Before the Sun, une huile sur toile monumentale réalisée en 1989 par James Rosenquist, se distingue comme le summum de sa série florale des années 1980, mêlant des formes botaniques vibrantes à de légères traces humaines. Figure clé du pop art des années 1960, Rosenquist est passé de ses premières œuvres à vocation commerciale à un style profondément personnel, un changement qui se reflète dans cette peinture où s'épanouissent des fleurs éblouissantes dans des tons jaunes et rouges sur un fond cosmique tourbillonnant de blancs, de violets et d'oranges. Inspirée par le déménagement de son atelier à Aripeka, en Floride, et l'adoption d'une technologie avancée de photocopie couleur, cette œuvre fusionne la splendeur de la nature et une touche abstraite dans une approche novatrice.


 


Les couches striées d'images hyper détaillées et la profusion de couleurs chaudes évoquent un soleil rayonnant et surnaturel, tandis que de subtiles allusions humaines ajoutent une touche d'intimité, reflétant son mélange distinctif d'héritage publicitaire et de vision personnelle. Réalisée à une époque marquée par l'influence technologique et environnementale, cette œuvre capture le dynamisme de la flore tropicale de Floride et affirme l'héritage durable de Rosenquist avec une brillance spectaculaire.
