Gérard SEKOTO (Middelburg 1913 - Nogent sur Marne 1993) Women in an interior Mixed media on paper 65 x 50 cm Signed and dated lower right G. Sekoto 91 Preparatory notes and pencil sketches on the back, later annotations in bic The back of the work is an exceptional document in its own right: Sekoto recorded the preparatory outline of the composition, sketching the figures, noting postures and colors, as well as a precise narrative indication. This handwritten brief reveals the artist's method, between intuition and thoughtful construction, and lends this sheet a rare documentary value. Provenance Former private collection in Metz, acquired through a private sale. This work illustrates Gerard Sekoto's constant attention to everyday scenes and moments of intimate sociability. Through a tight composition, the domestic scene goes beyond the anecdotal to reach a profoundly human dimension. The pared-down treatment of the drawing reveals his interest in the relationships between people and the discreet poetry of ordinary moments. Behind this apparent simplicity lies the experience of exile and memory, central themes in his Parisian work.

Gérard SEKOTO (1913-1993) Portrait d'homme, 1972 Huile sur toile Signée en bas à droite 33 x 41 cm (Craquelures et légers manques de matière) PROVENANCE : Acquis directement auprès de l'artiste par l'actuel propriétaire, dans les années 1980-1990. NOTICE Gérard Sekoto, Gérard Sekoto, est considéré comme l’un des pionniers de la peinture moderne sud-africaine, célèbre pour ses portraits, scènes urbaines et représentations de la vie quotidienne. Installé à Paris dans les années 1940, il y développe une peinture figurative profondément expressive, alliant réalisme social et sensibilité expressionniste. Dans Portrait d'homme, 1972, Sekoto privilégie l’intensité psychologique du sujet par la couleur et la gestuelle, traduisant à la fois la présence physique et la profondeur intérieure du modèle. Cette approche le relie à l’expressionnisme européen, en particulier à Chaïm Soutine, pour la force du trait et l’énergie picturale, ainsi qu’à Amedeo Modigliani, pour la stylisation et la tension du visage. Sekoto partage également des affinités avec Diego Rivera et David Alfaro Siqueiros par son engagement social et la représentation de figures de la vie quotidienne, tout en dialoguant avec les recherches chromatiques et de composition de Henri Matisse et Marc Chagall, où la couleur et le rythme deviennent vecteurs d’émotion. Son œuvre se situe à l’intersection de plusieurs influences : le post-impressionnisme de Paul Cézanne, la sensibilité expressionniste de Edvard Munch, et l’attention à la vie urbaine de Diego Rivera et Fernand Léger. Sekoto affirme ainsi un langage personnel où observation sociale, profondeur psychologique et poésie visuelle se combinent, consolidant sa place comme figure majeure de la peinture africaine moderne du XXe siècle. Gérard SEKOTO (1913-1993) Portrait of a man, 1972 Oil on canvas Signed lower right 33 x 41 cm (Crackling and slight loss of material) PROVENANCE : Acquired directly from the artist by the current owner, 1980-1990. NOTICE Gérard Sekoto, Gérard Sekoto, is considered one of the pioneers of modern South African painting, famous for his portraits, urban scenes and depictions of daily life. He moved to Paris in the 1940s, where he developed a deeply expressive figurative style, combining social realism and expressionist sensibility. In Portrait d'homme (1972), Sekoto emphasizes the subject's psychological intensity through color and gesture, conveying both the physical presence and inner depth of the model. This approach links him to European Expressionism, in particular Chaïm Soutine, for the strength of line and pictorial energy, and Amedeo Modigliani, for the stylization and tension of the face. Sekoto also shares affinities with Diego Rivera and David Alfaro Siqueiros through his social commitment and depiction of everyday figures, while at the same time interacting with the chromatic and compositional research of Henri Matisse and Marc Chagall, where color and rhythm become vectors of emotion. His work lies at the intersection of several influences: the post-impressionism of Paul Cézanne, the expressionist sensibility of Edvard Munch, and the attention to urban life of Diego Rivera and Fernand Léger. Sekoto thus asserts a personal language where social observation, psychological depth and visual poetry combine, consolidating his place as a major figure in modern African painting of the 20th century. Gérard SEKOTO (1913-1993) Retrato de hombre, 1972 Óleo sobre lienzo Firmado abajo a la derecha 33 x 41 cm (Grietas y ligera falta de materia) PROCEDENCIA : Adquirido directamente al artista por el actual propietario en los años 1980-1990. AVISO Gérard Sekoto está considerado uno de los pioneros de la pintura sudafricana moderna, famoso por sus retratos, escenas urbanas y representaciones de la vida cotidiana. Se trasladó a París en la década de 1940, donde desarrolló un estilo figurativo profundamente expresivo, que combinaba el realismo social y la sensibilidad expresionista. En Retrato de un hombre (1972), Sekoto subraya la intensidad psicológica del sujeto a través del color y el gesto, transmitiendo tanto la presencia física como la profundidad interior del modelo. Este enfoque le vincula al expresionismo europeo, en particular a Chaïm Soutine, por la fuerza de la línea y la energía pictórica, y a Amedeo Modigliani, por la estilización y la tensión del rostro. Sekoto también comparte afinidades con Diego Rivera y David Alfaro Siqueiros por su compromiso social y su representación de figuras cotidianas, al tiempo que dialoga con la investigación cromática y compositiva de Henri Matisse y Marc Chagall, donde el color y el ritmo se convierten en vectores de emoción. Su obra se sitúa en la intersección de varias influencias: el postimpresionismo de Paul Cézanne, la sensibilidad expresionista de Edvard Munch y la atención a la vida urbana de Diego Rivera y Fernand Léger. Sekoto afirmó así un lenguaje personal en el que se combinan la observación social, la profundidad psicológica y la poesía visual, consolidando su lugar como figura principal de la pintura africana moderna del siglo XX.

The subject is rendered with a haunting, statuesque quality, emerging from a deep indigo and obsidian background. Sekoto utilizes a sculptural application of paint, using thick, rhythmic brushstrokes to build the features of the face, which are highlighted with flashes of ochre and white. The use of a predominantly blue palette imbues the work with a sense of “Blue Note” melancholy, reflecting Sekoto’s dual life as a painter and a jazz musician in the clubs of Saint-Germain-des-Prés. The closed eyes and serene expression suggest a moment of deep introspection or spiritual resilience, a recurring theme in Sekoto’s depictions of the human condition. This work captures the transition of his style from the social realism of his South African years (District Six and Sophiatown) to the more atmospheric, psychological abstraction of his European period.
