Original Painted Wood -Hand Signed and Dated by Appel // Karel Appel's Flower with Blue Eyes (1977) is a playful and vibrant painted wood sculpture that showcases his signature abstract expressionist style. This piece, hand-signed and dated by Appel, features exaggerated shapes and bold, lively colors, including rich blues, greens, reds, and yellows. The composition, which appears to be a fusion of floral and anthropomorphic forms, includes a prominent flower-like shape with large blue eyes, giving it a whimsical and surreal quality. Appel's use of thick, irregularly cut wood pieces layered together creates depth and texture, enhancing the sculpture’s energetic and spontaneous feel. This work exemplifies Appel's fascination with color and form, transforming simple shapes into an exuberant, dynamic composition.

What is Gestural?
Gestural art is a term that describes painting with freely sweeping brushstrokes. The primary goal of gestural art is to allow the artist to physically express emotional impulses. The varied, yet expressive paint marks are intended to convey the artist's inner thoughts and emotions, which viewers are believed to understand through the dynamic and spontaneous application of paint.
