A little-known artist, Ginette Rapp nevertheless exhibited extensively in Parisian galleries and modern salons of her time. Today, the Centre Pompidou has seen fit to include several works by this artist in its collections.
Like her colleagues and contemporaries, Ginette Rapp was marked by obscurantism and the horrors of the Second World War. At first, she gave her paintings a dark and cold character, sometimes austere, but which became clearer as the years went by.
Our Still Life with Fish is undoubtedly a work of youth. One finds there the echo of Bernard Buffet and the influence of the new School of Paris. Two worlds confront each other in the ordinary everyday life: the old one symbolized by the hot water lamp and the new one, the one of the post-war period and the technological advances in communication, by the pole that can be seen through the window. Whether it is electric or telephone, it bears witness to a world apparently in movement but whose fundamental nature does not change: it is mortal, as the fish in the foreground testifies.
This unframed work is in very good condition.
