About the Item
Pamplona is a unique oil on canvas painting by contemporary artist Christophe Dupety, dimensions are 100 × 100 cm (39.7 × 39.7 in).
The artwork is signed, sold unframed and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
With this series, the artist is addressing the subject of bullfight. But rather than depicting the confrontation between man and beast, the violence and slaying or the surrounds, Christophe Dupety focuses on the portrayal of the animal itself, which takes centre stage of his composition. It is the animal's brute force which fascinates Christophe Dupety and which he skillfully captures in his painting.
The artist's endeavour is "to bring out the joy of painting in his work, i.e. colour, fluidity, spontaneity..." His gesture, sharp and vigorous, is often visible on the canvas. He also leaves room for "accidents" (drops and dripping) which "can occasionally give something to a work, an energy, some joy, something unexpected."
Through this explosion of colours, both energetic and joyous, Christophe Dupety gives us a veritable ode to nature and to life. An avid fan of an easily readable, direct form of painting, the artist is looking to arouse an immediate emotional response.

Christophe Dupety
Christophe Dupety’s paintings express the vitality and spontaneity of gesture, free of all interference. They also reflect a taste for taking risks: refusing to control everything but, on the contrary, wanting to confront the chaos of life by involving phenomena linked to weightlessness, flow and accidents. For the artist, these can be used in a way that contributes to what he wants us to see: the joy of painting. An artist who favours a form of painting that can be read immediately, Christophe Dupety seeks to encourage a spontaneous emotional response in the viewer. “I always try to emphasise the joy of painting in my work: colour, shape and fluidity, and above all a sort of graphic challenge in which things always seem spontaneous and graphic in any case, because drawing has always been very important for me.’’

By Sax Berlin

The latest rendition of Sax Berlin's interpretation of Harlequin. A beautiful piece evocative of medieval wall art where Harlequin wears his traditional hat, often shown in the modern world to have belonged to jesters but is really an allusion to the diamond pattern associated with Harlequin.
