Stephane Lovighi-Bourgogne
Expressionist Gouache and Watercolour Study for 'Alexander and His Army'

1990's

About the Item

French late 20th century watercolour and gouache study for the series 'Alexander and His Army' by Stephane Lovighi-Bourgogne. Presented in plain wood frame. A strong and forceful design for one of his larger canvases, a limited yet successful colour palette. Stéphane Lovighi-Bourgogne is a French self-taught painter. Born in Dijon in 1968, he lives in the south of France. At the start of his career, he painted the people he met. His technique was inspired by twentieth-century artists such as Chaïm Soutine, Lucian Freud and Picasso. Then, in flight from a reality punctuated by suffering, he created a world born of his dreams, his fantasies and his fears. His style has gradually become identified as a new genre, the « transfigurative ». His sensitivity is apparent to the viewer who alone can judge the artist's expression of emotions. At times, painting represents an outlet for him and at times it is introspective, but it has certainly become indispensable to his life. Love for others, love of others — that is what he paints.

  • Jerusalem Old City Landscape, Expressionist Judaica Israeli Painting
    By Andre Elbaz
    Located in Surfside, FL
    In this painting the artist uses gestural brushstrokes, which causes distortion and exaggeration for emotional effect. Andre Elbaz uses as his subject figures walking in old city Jerusalem. André Elbaz (born April 26, 1934, El Jadida, Morocco) is a famous Moroccan painter and filmmaker. Elbaz studied art and theatre in Rabat and Paris from 1950 to 1961. He started painting only at the age of 21, until which age he had been interested mainly in theatre. A few years later, he managed to combine his two passions into a new approach in art-therapy, inventing together with his wife, a psychiatrist, the Pictodrame, which brought him world recognition. His first exhibition, which was very successful, took place in Casablanca in 1961 and earned him an appointment as Professor at the Beaux-Arts school in Casablanca. Years later, in 1976, he exhibited his paintings at the Tel-Aviv Museum. In parallel to his career as a painter, Elbaz is also known as a filmmaker. He produced several short films in France, Canada and the United States. One of them, La nuit n'est jamais complète (The night is never complete), won a prize at the "5th Biennale de Paris in 1967". Among the themes chosen for the many films he produced, there was a short one about the Warsaw Ghetto uprising, as well as a series of drawings entitled Seuls (Alone), with texts written by both Elie Wiesel...
