// Karel Appel's Kool Luke Singing Hands (1978) is a bold silkscreen print that showcases the artist’s expressive style and vibrant use of color. The figure, outlined in striking red and yellow against a dark background, appears to be playing a guitar or similar stringed instrument. With exaggerated features, abstracted facial expressions, and large, dynamic hands, the composition captures a sense of rhythm and energy. Appel's signature loose lines and simplified forms create a playful, almost childlike quality, embodying the spontaneity and freedom of expression central to his work. The piece exudes a lively, musical essence that invites viewers to engage with its animated spirit.

What is Figuration Libre?
Figuration Libre is an art movement that is equivalent to the French Bad Painting and Neo-Expressionism in Europe and America. The term was coined by Ben Vautier and the Fluxus movement. In 1981, Robert Combas, François Boisrond, Hervé Di Rosa, and Rémi Blanchard formed the Figuration Libre group. The term can be interpreted as free style art, emphasizing spontaneity, freedom, and a rejection of traditional artistic conventions.
