Painting: timeless art…

One of the seven arts, painting is de facto reminiscent of the paintings exhibited in the most prestigious museums, like the Mona Lisa by Leonardo da Vinci. However, it is a timeless form of art which has remarkably managed to span the ages, from before Jesus Christ to Prehistory, Antiquity, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. If being a painter had nothing rewarding, today its democratization has made small shadow painters into protagonist artists of society. Oil painting, acrylic, watercolor, pastel or mixed media, painting captivates in all its forms.

Contemporary painting

From prehistoric times to today, painting remains an inexhaustible source of inspiration for artists around the world. In addition to representing a field of contemporary art, it constitutes a means of expression with multiple forms. Indeed, the brushstrokes illustrated on a painting hide a concept or a subject. Whatever the theme you are looking for, ARTactif presents a wide range of contemporary paintings.

Description
In this work which aims to play with the conceptual theme of the absolute work of art, that is to say the Mona Lisa, the notion of Graffiti culture and geek culture is introduced with the presence of the two aerosol bombs of the Krylon brand which represents at a historical level, the transition from brush painting to painting which is called pressionism (pressure) or Graffiti With the retro Gaming Pacman characters, but we also have several references to the beginning of a certain liberation of the contemporary, with the characters of Keith Haring or even little Smurfette who represents through this European comic strip character like the Mona Lisa, a mix of influences which gives a vision of a certain impertinence of contemporary art with a lot of references, including collages of letters and words which provide a material effect.
