Le Corbeau et le Renard
1967
Marcel Broodthaers' "Le Corbeau et le Renard" engages with La Fontaine's classic fable through a mixed media approach combining printed screen and painted wood, characteristic of the artist's conceptual practice. The work reflects Broodthaers' interest in language, literature, and representation, transforming the traditional narrative into a visual and material investigation. By merging industrial materials with painterly intervention, the artist destabilizes conventional distinctions between text, image, and object.
