Vir Absurdus - Oil on Paper - Contemporary Painting
By Patrick Faure
Located in New York, NY
This painting is artwork of Patrick Faure, Creator of Faurism. The painting is unframed, oil on paper.

Having been so close to a rock for such a long time, one cannot but imagine that he is becoming rock himself, suggests Camus. The objects lose their meaning.
The rock has turned into the five ball of a billiard set...
