Note du spécialiste

The CoBrA writer, Christian Dotremont described Corneille's paintings as 'inspirational topography, not because of a fixity, but because of a simple and complex movement, as if repeated but always different, curved lines and straight lines, spirals and radiations, perfections and cracks. Paintings [like] a single unfolded surface from which to fly away. To return. To return, but each time to become anew.' (In: exh.cat. Charleroi, Palais des Beaux-Arts, Corneille, 1974)
