Provenance
Famille d'Elaine de Kooning
Figure majeure des mouvements expressionniste abstrait et expressionniste figuratif américain des années 1940 et 1950, la production prolifique d'Elaine de Kooning a défié toute catégorisation. Ses styles polyvalents ont exploré le spectre du réalisme à l'abstraction, ce qui a donné lieu à une carrière caractérisée par une expression intense et un repoussement des limites artistiques. Un exemple frappant de la créativité explosive d'Elaine de Kooning est Untitled (Totem Pole), une peinture sculpturale extrêmement rare de l'artiste qui met en valeur sa maîtrise de la couleur.

Elle a créé cette œuvre vers 1960, à la même époque que ses célèbres peintures de taureaux. Elle quitte New York en 1957 pour commencer à enseigner à l'Université du Nouveau-Mexique à Albuquerque, et de là, elle se rend à Ciudad Juárez, où elle observe les corridas qui inspirent son travail. Grand voyageur, Mme de Kooning s'est inspirée de diverses sources, ce qui a donné naissance à une œuvre diversifiée et expérimentale.
