The artwork entitled “Children in the House” was created by the artist Corneille in 1948. It belongs to the Art Informel movement and falls under the genre of figurative art.
The artwork is characterized by an array of abstract, geometric forms and lines, which interlace and overlap. Dominated by a palette of whites, greys, and splashes of vibrant colors, the piece evokes a sense of complex structure. Figures that resemble child-like forms can be perceived amidst the intricate web of shapes. The painter employs a crude yet evocative style, with the use of bold outlines that frame the figures and elements within the composition. The overall aesthetic is both playful and mysterious, suggesting the bustling, chaotic nature of an interior space filled with the presence of children.
