You Go To My Head / Large Pink Colorful Abstract Painting / Taher Jaoui

2022

About the Item

Taher Jaoui "You Go To My Head" 71 x 61 inches Oil, acrylic and spray paint on canvas Large scale painting influenced by abstract expressionism and urban art and graffiti. Blue, green, and yellow color scheme create a warm and inviting work that will lighten and provide dimension to any space. Taher Jaoui (b.1978) is a French Neo-Abstract Expressionist painter, who was born in Tunisia and currently works in Germany. Jaoui graduated from the world-renowned Sorbonne University in Paris in 2007, where he studied Mathematics and Engineering. This education continues to inform Jaoui’s compositions which blend formulas and calculations with abstract forms and colors. Along with his personal experiences, Jaoui’s inspiration comes from many sources, including abstract expressionism, cartoons, graffiti, street art, and primitivism. Jaoui’s work mixes painting and drawing in ways that are both abstract and figurative. His colorful compositions stimulate the viewers’ feelings and imagination, allowing them to build their own interpretations. Without any formal art education, his artistic practice is influenced by African art, graffiti, glitch art, the COBRA art movement, as well as the philosophy and attitude of post-war abstract expressionism from the 50s and 60s. Varying from simple patterns to chalkboard-like scribble sections, the canvas surface becomes the workspace through which the artist exercises his ways of expression. The artist’s work combines a full palette of color and texture, using oil, enamel, spray paint and charcoal on raw canvas. Through laborious layering and reworking of the compositions, Jaoui constructs a visceral experience that directly captures the physical energy put into each piece. They are rich assemblages of layered forms, vibrant colors, expressive gestures, and mathematics signs and formulas. Serving as a channel to convey his thoughts, emotions, and visions, the artistic practice is Jaoui's source of confidence and peace, while the finished work becomes a documentation of the process of achieving those feelings.

Green Spin Pop Art Butterfly Gold Mirror with Diamond Dust / Punk Me Tender #220
By Punk Me Tender
Located in Greenwich, CT
Punk Me Tender (b. 1982) is a French street artist whose brightly colored work explores themes of love, beauty, sensuality, and desire. Born Romain Lefebvre in Paris, France, he immigrated to Los Angeles at the age of 18. There, he was introduced to street art by fellow artist, Mr. Brainwash. The pair worked together creating art for over 15 years. Today, Punk Me Tender’s work melds techniques of street art, graffiti, photography, and fashion. His bold three-dimensional mixed media creations often use a silhouette of a butterfly as his focal point amid explosions of color and texture. Spun art is one of the major techniques the artist employs in the work. On his work he explains “the technique I use is itself a transformation: I lay down colors over white butterflies, and watch them transform.” “The same way a butterfly is born, and how it transforms itself from a chrysalis– my whole body of work is based on that” Inspired by the anonymity of Mr. Brainwash and Banksy, Romain began to work under the pseudonym, Punk Me Tender, a name derived from his great love for the legendary singer Elvis Presley and electronic duo Daft Punk. He has held residencies at the SLS Hotel South Beach, Nobu, Astra, Club MIami, and the Kiss Kiss...
