About the Item
Ratzinger Chocolat is a unique oil on canvas painting by contemporary artist Christophe Dupety, dimensions are 80 × 80 cm (31.5 × 31.5 in).
The artwork is signed, sold unframed and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
This is a picture of Benedict XVI, whose real name is Joseph Aloisius Ratzinger. The inspiration for the old Pope's portrait alternates between cartoon-like and realistic styles. His eyes are especially piercing and sharp, while other parts of his body are rendered more crudely or even just sketched by a brush whose strokes are still discernible.
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.
